Wind Power
Available wind power is currently estimated at more than five times the energy used by the world today. An inventor in Boston has created a way to double that power in a system compact enough for urban wind generation.
Beyond the 3 R's
(Reduce, Reuse, Recycle)
We were the first major retailer to offset 100% of our energy use with wind energy credits. And we are glad to see that some of the world's largest retailers are following the example we've set in green building, the use of solar power, company-wide recycling programs, internal green mission programs and support for organics. When more companies take green steps, we all win.
Our Green Mission
We think green in almost everything we do, from product sourcing to how we build and operate our stores. So you’ve come to the right place if you’re interested in anything from recycling and alternative energy to cleaner cleaning products, organic agriculture or sustainable seafood.
You Can Go Green Too
Everybody can do the green thing because every little thing helps. It can be as simple as remembering your reusable bags or choosing products that respect the planet – we make it easy with thousands of products that do just that. Whatever your comfort level, you’ll find your own shade of green.
Eco-Scale/Our Commitment
When it comes to cleaning products, there are no regulations for listing ingredients on packaging, so we developed our Whole Foods Market Eco-Scale™ rating system, allowing you to make the best choices.
