Climate change is the greatest threat to the planet —
and our biggest opportunity
It's time for all of us to step up.
The IT industry has a huge part to play. Digital transformation has given everyday societal activities — shopping, streaming, and communication — a lighter environmental touch. However, this transformation is dependent on data centers, clouds, and devices that consume resources and create waste products from burning fossil fuel.
The more that is asked of our networks, the worse this dependency becomes. Unless we act.
Juniper is committed to a sustainable future. We’ve pledged to be carbon neutral by 2025. This is only the beginning as we look to transform the world to a more sustainable future.
Shaping the future
Encouraging alliances
The world’s challenges will be solved one way: together. We believe in the power of a connected world to bring us all closer together. When we’re all connected, we can change everything for the better.
Operational footprint
We consistently look for ways to make Juniper facilities more energy and cost efficient, less resource intensive, and ultimately, more sustainable. Read our latest Corporate Sustainability Report.
Product sustainability
We design products with the environment in mind. Our eco-design program emphasizes innovative materials, recyclability, and energy efficiency at every stage of the product lifecycle and supports a circular economy.
Engineering insights
Juniper is serious about network sustainability and serious about the role that we can serve for the betterment of our times. The dozen engineering papers collected in this book were written to jumpstart the discussion of sustainable networks and lowered network carbon emissions through engineering insight.
CASE STUDY
Greenergy brings sustainable data center services to the Baltics
Greenergy Data Centers (GDC) offers organizations a new choice for sustainable digital transformation. GDC has built the largest and most-energy efficient data center in the Baltics, with a target power usage effectiveness (PUE) lower than the goal set by the European Green Deal.
“We are opening a new sector for Estonia,” says Aivar Karu, CIO of GDC. “We are using renewable energy, our engineering skills, and climatic conditions to build the most energy-efficient, reliable, and secure data center in the Baltics.”
GDC relies on Juniper networking to support its business and data center operations.

Achieving Sustainable Cybersecurity Through Proper Care and Feeding
Cybersecurity has sometimes been seen as a spent-cost investment to keep investors happy and is often rolled out as a knee-jerk response to an attack. This has never been a sustainable approach, and fortunately, most organizations now see this and recognize the need for change.
