America’s largest drugstore chain, Walgreen’s Corporation has taken a HUGE step this week in partnering with a Denver-based clean energy solutions company, ImaginIt Inc., to install solar electric systems in approx. 115 stores and distribution centers in California and New Jersey. The solar roof tiles will enable each Walgreen’s facility to generate between 20% and 50% of its own electricity on site. Read about it in GreenBiz.
Is it me or is clean energy, sustainable business, and CSR starting to become main stream?
