More about Eagles Go Green Initiative
The Philadelphia Eagles believe the path to sustainability is a journey, not a destination, which is why they developed their Go Green program in 2003 with the opening of Lincoln Financial Field.
Faced with the growing awareness of the threat of global warming, what started with a blue recycling bin under each employee’s desk has grown into a company-wide sustainability initiative focusing on energy efficiency, green procurement policies, waste reduction and renewable energy purchasing that aims to reduce the team’s impact on the environment in a cost-effective manner.
With the help of its partners and fans, the Eagles have been able to develop a multiyear curriculum and action plan that has incorporated green energy production, recycling, composting, energy conservation, reforestation and much more.
