Failed Promise - Act Now!!!!!!

Bharti Airtel has failed to honour its commitment. Over 70,000 people asked the market leader to disclose its carbon emissions.

In June 2011, Bharti Airtel, along with Cellular Operators Association of India (COAI) representatives met Greenpeace India and promised to disclose its emission reduction plan, and a plan to use clean energy to power its network operations by September 2011  Now they refuse to act.

In contrast, companies like Vodafone Essar and Google have disclosed their carbon emissions from their Indian operations. Bharti Airtel can do the same. As a market leader and a company committed to sustainable growth, Bharti Airtel needs to be reminded about its commitment.

Can you send an email to Bharti Airtel Chairman Sunil Mittal and ask him fulfill the promise made by his company.

The company needs to know that it is being watched by its current and potential customers. Thousands of people writing to Chairman Sunil Mittal will help put pressure on him to act.

The telecom sector uses diesel at a subsidised price, which leads to a loss of Rs 2600 crore to the government.[4] Being the market leader Bharti Airtel powers lakhs of mobile towers and enjoys the biggest portion of this subsidised diesel.

Research by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change has shown that renewable energy has the potential to provide electricity to the world. Ask Bharti Airtel to lead the energy revolution now!
