## Leveraging Our Practical Expertise to Provide Environmental Management Solutions 

The Fujitsu Group has been actively addressing global environmental issues according to the principles set forth in our “Commitment to the Environment,” a statement of basic principles and conduct guidelines announced in 1992 and based on the fundamental philosophy of fully leveraging our resources as a technology creator to help harmonize human activity with the earth’s environment. This section highlights our environmental activities during fiscal 1999. 

GLYPH<H18567> Green products and environmental solutions Since pioneering environmentally friendly PCs in 1998, we have worked to steadily increase our “green product” offerings. As of the end of fiscal 1999, we had 141 different green products on the market. In the future, in addition to consumer products, we will endeavor to promote environmental friendliness among all our products, including core operations products such as large-scale computers and telecommunications equipment. 

In August 1999 we launched the Japanese industry’s first comprehensive environmental management solution, called @EcoVision. Making use of the Fujitsu Group’s own practical environmental expertise and utilizing the most advanced Internet and other information technologies, @EcoVision supports customers’ environmental management initiatives, thereby helping to foster the development of an environmentally sustainable society. 

GLYPH<H18567> Achieving ISO14001 certification ahead of target We are actively working to attain ISO14001 environmental management certification for our domestic plants and major offices by the end of fiscal 2000. In March 2000 we received ISO14001 certification for our Kawasaki research and manufacturing facilities one year ahead of schedule.

This achievement was especially noteworthy given the scale of the Kawasaki complex, which employs some 14,000 people. 

GLYPH<H18567> Ongoing reforestation efforts overseas Since the very beginning of the company, management has sought to promote greenery around Fujitsu’s plants as a way to encourage harmony with nature. Reflecting this 

philosophy, in August 1999 we planted 250,000 mangrove seedlings in Vietnam that were purchased using company and employee contributions. We plan to 

plant an additional 250,000 seedlings in fiscal 2000. Separately, in September 1999, we received an award for our tree-planting activities in Thailand since 1998. 

GLYPH<H18567> Establishing Corporate Environmental Affairs Group In April 2000 we established the Corporate Environmental Affairs Group with the intention of stepping up company- wide environmental activities and promoting full-fledged participation in environment-related businesses. 

GLYPH<H18567> International recognition for environmental excellence Fujitsu continues to earn high environmental ratings from such leading international organizations as Dow Jones, oekom research AG, Zürcher Kantonalbank and Business in the Community. Among the commonly cited factors behind these rankings are the farsightedness and rapid response of our environmental activities. Specifically, we have been praised for our recycling system _ an integrated system that spans collection to processing _ and for our system of environmental accounting, which clearly identifies costs and benefits.
