- Footprint
60,001 employees, 7,342 vehicles, 3,600 properties, and 13,200 tons of residual materials generated in one year. the size of a small community, Bell leaves an unavoidable footprint on the environment through its operational activities.
Our community is spread over thousands of kilometres and has a population density of approximately one person per hectare. Water is used for personal needs or to cool buildings; energy provides light and heat for our offices, to operate telecom equipment and to run our vehicles. Materials from network hardware and computers to pop cans are used, recycled or discarded on a daily basis.
And in connecting Canadians from coast to coast we recognize that our wired, wireless and satellite network infrastructure also has an inescapable impact on the environment.
Both inside the company and out, we strive to minimize this impact year after year for the good of our planet
