Our environmental mission statement underscores this commitment and emphasizes the principle of sustainable development. This mission statement, binding for all company units, was published by Siemens' president and CEO, Dr. Heinrich v. Pierer, and Dr. Edward G. Krubasik, member of the Managing Board with special responsibility for environmental protection and technical safety. The environmental mission statement reads as follows:

"Our knowledge and our solutions are helping to create a better world. We have a responsibility to the wider community and we are committed to environmental protection.

In our global operations, featuring a great diversity of processes, products and services, our company is concerned with sustaining the natural resources essential to life.  We support the dissemination of knowledge needed for sustainable development through the transfer of knowledge in the fields of management and technology, wherever we operate as a company.

For us, sustainable development in environmental protection means careful use of natural resources, which is why we assess possible environmental impacts in the early stages of product and process development. It is our aim to avoid pollution altogether or to reduce it to a minimum, above and beyond statutory requirements."
