Nine More Companies Join Campaign To Promote Renewable Electricity

The U.K.-based Climate Group announced that nine major companies have joined 27 others in a year-old initiative known as RE100, pledging to source 100 percent of their electricity from renewable energy to reduce CO₂ emissions. The newly-added members are Goldman Sachs, Johnson & Johnson, NIKE, Procter & Gamble, Salesforce, Starbucks, Steelcase, Voya Financial, and Walmart. The goal of RE100 is to massively increase private sector demand for renewable power, accelerate the transformation of the global energy market, and enable the transition to a prosperous low-carbon future.
