Leading Businesses

This is truly an inspiring time of re-invention. Thousands of small businesses are leading the way, and the list of corporate visionaries is growing rapidly, paving the way for the rest to follow. The world's leading index providers, Dow Jones and FTSE have successful sustainability indexes, which companies now vie to be part of - the Dow Jones Sustainability Index and the FTSE4Good Index.

Some leaders in making the transition to safer products include: OPI nailpolish, IKEA, Honda, Microsoft, Nike, Bath & Body Works and more.
