Acer Shares Earthion Sustainability Mission Milestone

As environmental issues are becoming increasingly pressing, Acer is urging more partners and suppliers to join forces in reducing harmful impacts to the environment and save valuable resources by transitioning toward a circular economy.

With the growing number of natural disasters around the world triggered by climate change, constructive and collective action is needed to address the pressing issues.

Concerted actions are necessary as they can greatly amplify the positive impacts made to the environment.

According to the Thomson Reuters Foundation, efforts in climate and nature issues in 2022 will need to be redoubled to slash carbon pollution accumulated from this decade, in a bid to maintain the 1.5 degrees Celsius warming ceiling and minimize the harmful impact of climate-change to the planet and its inhabitants.

Understanding the urgency of the matter, Acer calls for more businesses to join the green movement and shares the progress of its environmental sustainability efforts, accomplished together with its partners, suppliers, and Acer employees on Acer Green Day with the hopes of inspiring others to do their part for the Earth.

Acer began incorporating sustainability practices in its operations more than a decade ago. Since 2008, the company has introduced the CDP Supply Chain for carbon disclosure reporting to pinpoint risks and identify opportunities across its supply chain, and extended coverage to three tiers of suppliers beginning this year.

In 2013, Acer began to significantly increase the recycled content of its notebook PC packaging. In 2017, Acer launched Project Humanity to unite all employees worldwide in creating a sustainability framework for eco-friendly initiatives and instill a green philosophy within the company culture, with over 70% employees worldwide taking part.
