The Motorola 2008 Corporate Responsibility Report, released today at www.motorola.com/responsibility, highlights actions the company has taken on its global social, accountability and sustainability initiatives.

Highlights from the 2008 report:

The recently launched MOTO™ W233 Renew mobile phone is the world’s first CarbonFree® Certified phone through an alliance with Carbonfund.org. It is made of polycarbonate from recycled water cooler bottles, which means 20 percent less energy is needed to make the phone.

Motorola collected more than 2,560 tonnes of electronic and electrical equipment waste for recycling, about a one percent increase from 2007. The company participates or runs recycling programs in 70 countries around the world.

Motorola and the Motorola Foundation invested $23.7 million to support community programs such as education and disaster relief, and its employees gave $4.3 million in voluntary donations.

Motorola committed $4 million to support more than 90 U.S. programs that use innovative approaches to develop students’ interest and skills in science, technology, engineering and mathematics.

During the company’s third annual Global Day of Service, more than 10,000 employees in 45 countries volunteered in their local communities.
