        The AT+T Corporation, formerly known as The American Telephone and
Telegraph Company, was incorporated on March 3, 1885 in New York as a wholly
owned subsidiary of The American Bell Telephone Company.  Its original purpose
was to manage and expand the burgeoning toll (long distance) business of
American Bell and its licensees.  It continued as the long distance company
until December 30, 1899 when it assumed the business and property of American
Bell and became the parent company of the Bell System. For most of its history,
the company functioned as a legally sanctioned, regulated monopoly.  No

company.  The new AT+T is committed to making the most of its leadership
position in the dynamic global market for communications and information
services.  With 2.3 million share owners, AT+T is the most widely held stock in
the United States.

        AT+T has an Environmental Responsibility and they follow through on it.
They take precautions and do not want to mess up the environment any more than
it has already been.  AT+T's strong commitment to have good environmental
performance has to start with environmental goals that call for phaseout of CFC
emissions from manufacturing operations.  Also, they would like to eliminate
reportable toxic air emissions.  They have already increased recycling of waste
paper and in the use of paper.  Their progress is a key to their responsibility.
The figures I found are as follows.  The factories have virtually eliminated all
CFC emissions.  They have reduced reportable toxic air emissions by 92 p...
