LSI named to Carbon Disclosure Leadership Index

BANGALORE, INDIA: LSI Corp. announced that the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP), which represents 475 institutional investors with $55 trillion in assets, has named LSI to the 2009 Carbon Disclosure Leadership Index.

“LSI is committed to reducing our carbon footprint in the United States and at our facilities around the world,” said Andy Micallef, executive vice president, Worldwide Operations, LSI. “Recognition by the Carbon Disclosure Project is a welcome reflection of our results to date.”

Compiled by PricewaterhouseCoopers, the Carbon Disclosure Leadership Index is an evaluation tool for institutional investors. It lists the top 50 corporations on the S&P 500 based on analysis of management responses to the CDP’s annual questionnaire.

In 2009, the questionnaire focused on greenhouse gas emissions, emissions reduction targets, and the risks and opportunities associated with climate change.

Paul Dickinson, Chief Executive of the Carbon Disclosure Project, said, “The Carbon Disclosure Leadership Index recognizes companies who have demonstrated a good understanding of how climate change affects their business today and in the future.

Companies who minimize their emissions today and who seize opportunities to reduce their footprint tomorrow will be well-placed to prosper in a low carbon economy of the future.”
