IBM’s
Environmental
Characteristics
of
Products
IBM
has
developed
processes
to
ensure
that
its
products
and
processes
meet
all
applicable
regulations
including
environmental
and
product
legislation.
Meeting
legislation
is
a
minimum

and
IBM
is
using
requirements
which
may
go
even
beyond
the
legislation.
How
IBM
Can
Help
You
Go
Green
Recently,
IT
discussions
of
cost
savings
have
evolved
to
concerns
over
energy
efficiency.
Faced
with
the
issue
of
an
energy
efficient
data
center,
businesses
are
looking
for
ways
to
optimize
their
computing
environments
to
the
benefit
of
their
bottom
line
and
our
planet.
IBM
believes
the
two
efforts
are
complimentary.
IBM
offers
a
comprehensive
approach
to
helping
businesses
develop
energy
efficient
and
environmentally
responsible
green
data
centers.
We
can
answer
your
questions
on
how
to
get
started
and
we
are
interested
hearing
about
your
own
plans
for
a
Green
Data
Center!
Please

note
to
so
we
can
help
provide
you
