AT&T Inc. 25
INNOVATIVE SOLUTIONS, SUSTAINABLE
ALTERNATIVES At AT&T, we know that
our responsibility to the people we serve
extends beyond the communities where we
live and work to the natural world we all
share. That’s why we’re developing solutions
that enable people and businesses to make
more sustainable choices that reduce both
environmental impact and costs.
For example, more of our business customers
are working to improve productivity and
conserve travel budgets, while addressing their
carbon footprints. We offer a suite of solutions to
help them address all three priorities, including
AT&T Telepresence Solution®, AT&T Connect®
Collaboration Services, IP VPN services and
cloud services as both a service and a platform.
An AT&T-sponsored study — Cloud Computing:
The IT Solution for the 21st Century —
conducted by the Carbon Disclosure Project
and Verdantix, found that by 2020, large U.S.
companies2 that use cloud computing can
achieve annual energy savings of $12.3 billion
and annual carbon reductions equivalent to
200 million barrels of oil — that’s enough to
power 5.7 million cars for one year.3
And we’re working to minimize our own
environmental impact. That’s why we’re investing
in energy-efficiency projects, as well as alternative
energy — including alternative-fuel vehicles,
solar, fuel cell technology and wind. In 2011,
our energy-efficiency efforts paid off in the
form of $42 million in annualized savings.
alternative-fuel vehicles
deployed through 2011 across the U.S. as part of our
10-year commitment to deploy approximately 15,000
of these vehicles through 2018, one of the largest such
commitments by any U.S. company
