Ford's Earth Day statement touts success in cleaning up global operations

Those Dagenham windmills. The Fumes to Fuel paint project. Renewable energy at the Cologne plant. Much of what Ford is touting in its Earth Day press release (read it yourself after the break) is old news to us on AutoblogGreen. If you're interested in the broad sweep of what Ford is trying to do around the world to reduce its impact on the environment, the release is a great place to start. It's not a bad idea to review those changes, as Ford's efforts have had quite an impact. According to the company, when all global operations are taken into consideration, CO2 emissions are down by 39 percent, water usage dropped by 43 percent and total energy use is 30 percent lower (compared to 2000 numbers). That's mighty impressive. Now, if every factory were zero-waste like Subaru's Indiana facility, we'd really be making progress.
