Who is Making the Green Change?

It is important to commend the large companies who are making strides to better their company and be more environmentally friendly. The fact that large companies are taking responsibility for their actions shows that this is a huge trend in the market. A number of large companies are making small and large efforts;

1. By continuously developing their supply chain, Nike has made huge strides to be one of the most green and largest companies in the world. They have checks on chemical toxicity, water use, and carbon emissions.

2. Yahoo! is another huge company who makes strides to better the environment. They use energy only from renewable resources. They have also found a way to use 95% less water than most data centers.

3. IBM is another company known for their efforts to be green. They not only better themselves, but help to make their clients more eco-friendly.

The fact that these companies are making strides to perform in the most "green" way possible, gives hope and confidence to smaller firms who are hoping to perform well in this industry. Not only are the companies we invest in required to be developing a product that is CleanTech, but also the small efforts in their day to day business should be green as well. Watching what the large companies are doing on a day to day basis is a great help to many small startup companies.
