The 2010-11 report’s cover story is about Cummins ReCon business and the high-tech ways it keeps parts and engines out of landfills and on the road longer. Other stories explore Cummins China’s efforts to help that country reach its environmental goals, the growing interest in the company’s natural gas-powered engines and generator systems, and the increasing number of buildings at Cummins with “green” features.
The report highlights a number of community involvement initiatives by Cummins employees, including:
• The many efforts by Cummins Brazil to help its neighbors in Guarulhos;
• Multiple initiatives to bring power to remote villages around the world; and
• A project to clean one of China’s largest freshwater lakes.
As part of the company’s 2nd annual Environmental Challenge, Cummins employees tackled projects ranging from feeding the hungry in Minneapolis through straw bale gardening to building an outdoor classroom for students in Stamford in the United Kingdom, to working with children who have hearing and speaking disabilities in Craiova, Romania.
