Approximately 470 million tons of plastic are produced worldwide each year. This substantial amount of plastic production underscores the importance of recycling and sustainable waste management practices to mitigate the environmental impact of plastic waste. Cisco, along with other global companies, is actively working to reduce plastic use and promote recycling as part of their broader sustainability efforts​ (EcoWatch)​​ (OECD)​​ (RubyHome)​.

Fluorinated gases and methane are two significant greenhouse gases (GHGs). Methane is a potent GHG that contributes to global warming and is a focus of many environmental sustainability efforts, including Cisco’s GHG emission reduction initiatives. Fluorinated gases, although present in smaller quantities, have a high global warming potential and are also targeted in sustainability strategies. Cisco’s commitment to reducing GHG emissions is a key part of their environmental goals, as outlined in their Net Zero Emissions strategy.

Cisco signed the UN Global Compact in 2001. This commitment aligns Cisco’s operations and strategies with the ten universally accepted principles in the areas of human rights, labor, environment, and anti-corruption. Cisco's ongoing support for the UN Global Compact reflects its dedication to sustainability and corporate social responsibility, as stated in their corporate reports and official announcements​ (Cisco Blogs)​​ (Good Equals Progress)​.
