Dell and the Environment

Green is not about limitation, it's about possibility. It's about finding a better way.
Every day, you have the opportunity to make greener choices, but when choosing technology, you do not want to compromise on cost, performance or
reliability. At Dell, we believe you shouldn't have to. Which is why we strive to ensure that people and companies don't have to make trade-offs to be green.
We make this a reality by delivering practical products and services that make an impact on real environmental issues, because at the heart of green is the
powerful idea that better ways are possible. Better ways to use time, money and resources. Better ways to live, work and succeed in our world.
Bamboo–Nature's Eco-Friendly Packaging Solution
To help achieve the shared goal of finding new ways to help preserve our planet's natural resources, Dell provides practical, but
innovative packaging solutions that help minimize environmental effects. Less packaging means less hassle for customers.
Recyclable packaging makes it easy to dispose. And sustainable materials are good for our planet.
For easy disposal, our bamboo packaging is biodegradable and certified 'compostable' by the Soil Control Lab and currently
cradles Dell's netbooks, some phones, and most Inspiron notebooks with more products to come in 2010.
We know that responsible sourcing is important to you, so our bamboo is sourced from a forest far away from pandas' known
habitats.
Join the Plant a Tree Program
Dell created the Plant a Tree program to make it easy for you to offset the greenhouse gas emissions from your computer
equipment and to help build a healthier planet — one tree and forest at a time.
Recycle With Dell
As you upgrade computers and electronics, please join our efforts to keep technology out of the world's landfills. Recycling your
home and business computers with us is fast, convenient and secure. Do yourself and your planet a favor. Dispose of your
technology responsibly with Dell.
