NORTHAMPTON, MA / ACCESSWIRE / April 29, 2024 / Through our Environmental Program Management Standard, we focus on identifying activities, services and processes that generate waste and strive to reduce the impact of our waste disposal practices on the environment. Our operations generate various types of waste, including general solid waste, hazardous and regulated waste and e-waste, including network infrastructure equipment. Our approach to waste management involves reuse and recycling programs to help us decrease the amount of waste we send to landfills. It also comprises the development of initiatives to reduce our overall waste footprint and the promotion of less toxic, more durable, reusable and recycled materials in our operations. A variety of our business units lead our waste recycling and management programs. They include:
馬薩諸塞州北安普敦/ACCESSWIRE /2024年4月29日/通過我們的環境計劃管理標準，我們專注於確定產生廢物的活動、服務和流程，並努力減少我們的廢物處置做法對環境的影響。我們的業務會產生各種類型的廢物，包括一般固體廢物、危險和受管制的廢物以及電子廢物，包括網絡基礎設施設備。我們的廢物管理方法包括再利用和回收計劃，以幫助我們減少送往垃圾填埋場的廢物量。它還包括制定減少總體廢物足跡的舉措，以及在我們的運營中推廣毒性更低、更耐用、可重複使用和可回收的材料。我們的各個業務部門領導着我們的廢物回收和管理計劃。它們包括：
- Real Estate and Facilities (QREF): Our QREF and site support teams manage general solid waste at our sites, as well as manage surplus office furniture. The team works with service providers to measure waste and implement programs to encourage waste reduction, recycling and composting.
- EHS: Our EHS group manages hazardous and other regulated waste generated by various business operations. EHS also provides guidance to various business units regarding the recycling of batteries and e-waste and the management of other regulated wastes.
- IT: Our IT group works with several qualified e-waste recyclers to manage electronics recycling. The team is also active in donating computer equipment to local charities and schools.
- 房地產和設施（QREF）：我們的QREF和現場支持團隊管理我們場地的一般固體廢物，並管理剩餘的辦公傢俱。該團隊與服務提供商合作，衡量浪費，並實施鼓勵減少廢物、回收和堆肥的計劃。
- EHS：我們的 EHS 小組管理各種業務活動產生的危險廢物和其他受監管廢物。EHS還就電池和電子廢物的回收以及其他受管制廢物的管理向各業務部門提供指導。
- IT：我們的IT團隊與幾家合格的電子廢物回收商合作，管理電子產品的回收利用。該團隊還積極向當地的慈善機構和學校捐贈計算機設備。
We continue our efforts to minimize the impacts of hazardous waste by using less toxic material, where possible, and reducing the amount generated. Our disposition approach is recycling or reuse, followed by physical treatment or disposal in an appropriate landfill, as a last resort.
我們將繼續努力，儘可能使用毒性較小的材料並減少產生的量，從而最大限度地減少危險廢物的影響。作爲最後的手段，我們的處置方法是回收或再利用，然後進行物理處理或在適當的垃圾填埋場處置。
We strive to prioritize our waste mitigation efforts to reduce the number of materials going to landfills. To support this effort, we revamped our internal waste data collection system to increase data availability and accuracy. We also retrained our data providers and supporting vendors to follow our waste data collection processes and practices. By taking these actions, we will have better visibility of our total waste generated and be in a position to identify waste diversion solutions, as well as improve our waste management activities.
我們努力優先考慮廢物減排工作，以減少進入垃圾填埋場的材料數量。爲了支持這項工作，我們改進了內部廢物數據收集系統，以提高數據的可用性和準確性。我們還對數據提供者和支持供應商進行了再培訓，使他們遵循我們的廢物數據收集流程和慣例。通過採取這些行動，我們將提高我們產生的廢物總量的可見性，並能夠確定廢物轉移解決方案，改善我們的廢物管理活動。
"Our approach to waste management involves reuse and recycling programs to help us decrease the amount of waste we send to landfills."
“我們的廢物管理方法包括再利用和回收計劃，以幫助我們減少送往垃圾填埋場的廢物量。”
