Sustainability
What does it mean to be a good company? Is it about paying fair wages? Absolutely. Having excellent customer service? Definitely. Giving back the communities? Of course.
But at Best Buy, we think it’s about more than that: Being a good company means helping to solve societal problems, like lack of tech education for teens from underserved communities and climate change.
On Monday, CECP (Committee Encouraging Corporate Philanthropy) honored Best Buy Chairman and CEO Hubert Joly with its distinguished Force for Good Award.
CES is where the tech world gathers every year to see the newest and coolest technology. It’s also where environmental leadership in the industry is celebrated.
On Thursday, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) honored Best Buy with a Silver Tier Award in the Sustainable Materials Management Electronics Challenge. Winners were chosen based on their electronics recycling programs and use of third-party certified recyclers whose practices meet strict environmental standards. This is the fourth consecutive year we have been recognized for e-waste recycling by the EPA.
