The Environment:
| "The issue Clients, investors and employees are showing increased interest in our approach to environmental issues. Reducing our environmental impact enhances our credibility as communications advisors on sustainability issues. It enables us to demonstrate to stakeholders that we have strong environmental principles. Using energy and other resources more efficiently also helps us to reduce costs and respond to new regulations. Cutting our impact on the environment as our business grows is important but challenging. Our response We aim for WPP to be a low-carbon and resource efficient Group. We set strategy at a Group level, covering energy and climate change, resource use and waste management. To implement our strategy, we have established Environmental Action Teams in North America, Europe, Asia Pacific and Latin America. These include members of key Group functions, such as IT, real estate and procurement. They work closely with our operating companies, identifying environmental best practices through pilot projects and providing support and technical guidance. Our network of Climate Champions, together with local IT, facilities and purchasing managers, help to implement the strategy in our companies. WPP's environmental policy is included in the Group's Sustainability Policy which is reviewed annually by the Sustainability Committee.
