At Equinix, we seek to be good stewards of the environment and of the resources we consume. We strive to lead the world in interconnection while also taking steps to minimize our carbon and environmental footprint. We understand the value of collaboration and transparency. We seek to elevate our status among our competitors and the broader industry, as a leader in sustainable design, efficiency, and innovation. We design, build and operate our data centers with high energy efficiency standards and we have a long-term goal of using 100% clean and renewable energy for our global platform. This will result in carbon-neutral data center and interconnection services for our customers and partners around the globe.
