Sprint

Background

Sprint has extensive operations throughout the United States and in three of the U.S. territories — U.S. Virgin Islands, Puerto Rico and Guam. With approximately 40,000 employees and a network that serves more than 55 million customers, Sprint's operations are significant, and the company places a critical importance on minimizing its environmental impact.

Sprint’s 200-acre Overland Park, Kansas campus is one of the most environmentally responsible campuses in the country. It was designed with the environment and employees in mind. Sprint has secured 5% of its total energy use from renewable energy – wind, solar, geothermal, hydrogen fuel cells, just to name a few, and consistently ranks within the top 15 on the EPA 2012 Green Power Partner list for Fortune 500 companies. Sprint’s greenhouse gas reduction strategy relies primarily on reducing energy consumption but also on increasing use of renewable energy. As a large corporation with thousands of locations throughout the U.S., Sprint is actively engaged in making a difference.
