Our Carbon Footprint

We calculate our company’s carbon footprint — our total annual greenhouse gas emissions — according to the World Resources Institute (WRI) and the World Business Council for Sustainable Development (WBCSD) Greenhouse Gas Protocol, the leading global standard for greenhouse gas accounting.

In 2009, the carbon footprint of our business was approximately 5.4 million metric tons. This represents an 11.5 percent decrease compared to our baseline year of 2007.

These emissions are classified into three different “Scopes,” depending on their source and origin.

Our core emissions are from Scope 1 (the direct emissions from our facilities and our fleet) and Scope 2 (the electricity we purchase).

We also choose to report our Scope 3 emissions (emissions that do not occur at the sites of our business operations but that result from our business). For us, these are mainly emissions generated by the electricity used for our sales and marketing equipment, which is operated by our customers on their premises.

Under the Protocol, reporting Scope 3 emissions is optional; however, we measure and seek to reduce our Scope 3 emissions because they are almost 2.5 times greater than our core emissions.
