Environmental Promise: Stores

"There is a technological revolution going on out there with respect to buildings, heating,cooling, compressors, lighting, refrigeration and more. Wal-Mart has always been a technological leader. And we are going to do it again with our stores. We want to eliminate 30 percent of the energy used by our stores..." -Lee Scott

For Wal-Mart to keep its promise to be an environmentally responsible company, it is vital for the company to keep its commitment to site and operate its stores in a sustainable manner.

Wal-Mart Watch is asking for your help in keeping an eye on Wal-Mart's promises to be an environmentally responsible company.  Please take action by going to a nearby Wal-Mart and describing what you see through our activist form.  We will highlight results on our blog.
