- We are on track to exceed our science-based goal of reducing our carbon emissions 45 percent by 2020 (over a 2009 baseline).
- We optimize our store energy usage by automating the lighting, heating and air conditioning.
- We transitioned our Geek Squad car fleet to the hybrid Toyota Prius c, reducing fuel usage.
