Best Buy Corporate Responsibility and Sustainability
What happens when you drop off old gadgets? We talked to John Shegerian to learn more.
We're thrilled by recent recognition from three organizations.
Best Buy has landed at No. 6 on the annual list that ranks environmental performance.
Today Best Buy released its fiscal year 2017 Corporate Responsibility & Sustainability Report. What’s the big news? We set out to reduce our carbon emissions 45 percent by 2020 (over a 2009 baseline) and, at the end of 2016, we reached nearly 47 percent.
We are committed to addressing climate change. But that’s not all.
At Best Buy, we are focusing our efforts to positively impact the world in three areas: our communities, our environment and our people. It’s the work we call Best Buy for Good.
Climate change is a global issue that will only be solved through collective efforts. Best Buy is focused on reducing our own carbon impact, and helping our customers use less energy as well. Here are some of the ways we contribute to this effort:
- 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.
