Although Nokia has had its name dragged through the mud in Germany somewhat lately, it seems that the savings the company is set to make by seeking cheaper manufacturing might be put to good use.
The company has just announced that it has joined the WWF Climate Savers program as a part of a company wide initiative to improving energy efficiency and reduce carbon dioxide emissions across its business.
Some of the projected targets include halving the stand-by energy used by its handset chargers, switching to green electricity to power 50 per cent of its facilities by 2010 and cutting the overall energy needs of its sites by 6 per cent by 2012. If Nokia can make these projections then it stands to set quite an example for the rest of the industry. Here’s hoping other mobile companies will follow suit.
