Through the clever implementation of electricity, water, waste, travel, paper and fuel reduction strategies some of our clients are realizing anything from 10 to 50% savings annually.

Leading companies no longer question how much it will cost to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, but how much money they can make doing it. Climate change poses risks to industry, but it also presents opportunities: companies are already taking advantage of new products, markets, and competitive advantages inherent in the low-carbon economy.

• Cost Savings. DuPont reduced greenhouse gas emissions by 70 percent between 1990 and 2004, increasing production by 33 percent during that time while also saving over $2 billion.
• Increased Productivity. Wal-Mart has committed to improving the fuel efficiency of its trucking fleet by 25 percent over the next three years, and stands to save $50 million per year from an improvement of only one mile per gallon in fleet efficiency.
• New Markets. General Electric’s "ecomagination" program has a goal of $20 billion of sales by 2010; it had $12 billion in sales in 2006 alone, with $50 billion worth of back orders for products such as diesel-electric hybrid locomotives, components for hydrogen power and energy-efficient LED bulbs.
