Joining 1% for the Planet is another step in continuing our commitment to taking care of our resources and having a positive impact on our environment.” Says Emma Ranz, Sustainability Engineer at Macro Plastics.
Members of 1% for the Planet said they are committed to supporting approved environmental nonprofit partners by donating the equivalent of 1 percent of sales through a combination of monetary, in-kind, and approved advertising contributions. Nonprofits are approved based on referrals, track record and environmental focus. There are thousands of approved nonprofits worldwide.
