After Hurricane Harvey flooded Hewlett Packard Enterprise's largest campus, it moved manufacturing out of Texas to locations less exposed to extreme weather, and also did something few companies do: It disclosed its climate-related risks to its investors

in 2017, Hewlett Packard Enterprise Co. ’s largest campus was heavily flooded. Its global data center was inundated, along with buildings where the tech company’s servers and data-storage gear were assembled. After the floodwaters receded, Chief Executive Antonio Neri, then the company’s newly appointed president, toured the facility where diesel generators ran machinery drying out rooms to prevent mold. Two months later, HPE announced it was moving all manufacturing operations out of the Houston area to locations less exposed to extreme weather.

“... it moved manufacturing out of Texas to locations less exposed to extreme weather”, such as Wisconsin.

HP also got away from Texas's unwinterized energy grid.
