Studies show that people are increasingly concerned about sustainability. One of my favorite companies, the Walt Disney Company, is committed to protecting the planet for future generations. The company’s commitment to environmental stewardship dates to its founding nearly 100 years ago. 2030 Environmental goals focus on reducing greenhouse gas emissions, reducing waste, building more sustainability, and reducing the environmental impact of their consumer products. The company announced that it is teaming up with local utility providers to build two new solar facilities expected to come near Walt Disney World in 2023. That, along with existing solar resources, will power up to 40% of the resort's annual electricity needs. Disney also installed solar arrays at Castaway Cay and Hong Kong Disneyland. In addition, the company diverted 60% of operational waste from landfill, then launched plastic-free packaging for a line of classic Princess Dolls. Moreover, the company invested millions to support nonprofit organizations working across 30 countries through the Disney Conservation Fund.

The company continues to promote diversity, equity, and inclusion in its workplace and beyond. They are implementing new content inclusion standards, launching a new talent acquisition initiative at historically black colleges and universities, and directing $15 million of annual charitable giving to programs serving underrepresented communities.

The company supports children's hospitals and wish-granting organizations through the contributions of thousands of Disney volunteers around the world. The company supported local food banks worldwide through monetary and in-kind giving, including donating more than 320 tons of food to support communities impacted by COVID-19.
