Describe the process(es) your organization has in place to ensure that your engagement activities are consistent with your overall climate change strategy[…]The governance structures we have in place at Arm ensure that our direct and indirect activities influencing policy are consistent with overall climate change strategy. The tone is set from the top, with the CEO providing leadership and driving company-wide support in implementing the sustainability strategy which includes our climate change strategy. The Arm Sustainability Committee (SC) plays a significant role in ensuring consistency across our activities with the principles of the sustainability strategy. The Sustainability Committee (SC) meets quarterly and reports to the Executive Committee. The Sustainability Committee (SC) comprises a number of Executive members and other senior individuals representing sustainability, legal, strategy, finance, and people (HR).
Our sustainability strategy focuses on two key areas:
· Closing the Digital Divide: extending our reach to connect everyone, everywhere to opportunity. Leveraging our ecosystem-building capabilities to extend the reach of our technology, accessing new markets and closing the gap between those who have full access to digital technologies and the 3.7 billion who currently do not
· Decarbonizing Compute: working to minimize the environmental impact of our operations and our technology. Leveraging our expertise in low-power compute to do more work per watt, providing a unique opportunity to drive up connectivity while driving down carbon consumption
The strategy is enabled by our people – Global Problem Solvers – and underpinned by trust, through our commitment to Responsible Technology.
Arm's long-term strategy aims to benefit from increasing requirements for reducing environmental impacts. We specialize in designing technology with low power needs with the potential to reduce lifetime emissions.
