As a part of this year's Blog Action Day I decided that since I am not the most knowledgable person on the issue of climate change I would talk about a company that is. I know that I have written about Patagonia before, but they continue to impress me with their desire for corporate social resposiblity and more specifically their extreme measures to cause little to no harm to the environment. They have many programs installed in order to not only stay green and clean but they are also adamant about spreading the word to encourage others to live a greener life. They are apart of 1% for the Planet, which is a group of companies that gives 1% of all sales to grassroots environmentalist companies. In a recent blog post, they even discuss climate change and how we can affect it this year.
Aside from being a part of this organization, Patagonia also has its own blog, The Cleanest Line, which updates on environmental issues as well. If one is wondering how exactly Patagonia is working to keep their company environmentally sustainable, the company offers a step by step process of how and where their clothing is made. They call this The Footprint Chronicles.
These are the people that are actually working to change the deterioration of our world and environment and have used their position in the best way possible.
