Environmental Activities
Fujitsu Semiconductor is working on environmental activities based on the "Green Policy 2020" midterm environmental vision of the Fujitsu Group. We are both progressing with activities such as reducing greenhouse gases and reducing wastes while also helping improve the environmental performance of our customers' products through low power consumption and small footprint eco-device solutions. We are continuing to give consideration to the environment through the entire life cycle from design and development to manufacturing, logistics, and operation. We are also expanding activities that contribute to the environment, such as afforestations programs in various regions around the world.

Amid the Transition from Growth to Maturity
Contributing to the Creation of a New Society : "Our Mission is to Shift to a Low-carbon Energy Society"
March 11, 2011, is a day that we will never forget.
I have often thought that the mission of companies is to contribute to the creation of a prosperous society through conducting the businesses in which they excel. The Great East Japan Earthquake has made me think, once again, about what contributions we should make as a semiconductor manufacturer.
While many issues were exposed by the recent disaster, one major item is how the energy supply system should be. Efforts were already being advanced, prior to the earthquake, to expand solar, wind, geothermal and other natural electric power generation; to construct a smart grid; and to build up a supply system for a new mature society. Unfortunately, the progress has been slow.
The earthquake, however, has suddenly amplified this trend toward a low-carbon energy society into a full-scale surge. I have come to understand that our contribution, as a semiconductor manufacturer, is to help design a low-carbon energy society and provide eco-friendly information and telecommunications technologies to achieve it.
In the transition from a growing to a mature society, we are being asked to incorporate natural energy sources into our lifestyles and to use them effectively. To create a safe, secure and environmentally friendly lifestyle together with our customers, the Fujitsu Semiconductor Group aims at contributing to the realization of a new society by having our ARM-core, low-power microcomputers, GaN power devices and other eco-device solutions used in our customers' products.
