The scale of sustainability issues are now more than ever stimulated by sweeping EU, US or global regulatory action. The semiconductor industry has a long track record of proactive collaboration through consortia and other mechanisms to solve these significant industry-wide sustainability issues. Prime examples for the semiconductor industry’s dedication to sustainability include: the replacement of ozone-depleting chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) in semiconductor manufacturing, removal of hazardous substances in products under the EU Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS) regulation, and the mitigation of Conflict Minerals in supply chains. Continued collaboration is essential to keep pace with global climate initiatives to reduce Greenhouse gases (GHGs), as well as to proactively manage chemicals of concern and new regulatory expectations to reduce and eliminate the use of PFAS substances (as an example) in semiconductor manufacturing, our products, and our supply chain. The good news is that, we have an opportunity to harness research funding that is being dedicated for our innovation in several geographies. It is essential to come together to leverage this funding to be prioritized to help the industry work on alternatives to be proactive in our green initiatives and to manage through these current regulatory challenges. Collaboration will lead to industry-wide solutions versus incremental improvement of individual company solutions. We ask that the industry come together as we always have to ensure the most cost effective, noncompetitive solutions for the continued innovation of our industry that will help the planet, our future and ensure we can meet current and future regulatory challenges.
