Casella Waste Systems, Inc. (Nasdaq: CWST), a regional solid waste,
recycling and resource management services company, has been named
to USA Today’s “America’s Climate Leaders 2024” list for the second
consecutive year.
The list recognizes the top 450 companies across the United
States that have achieved the greatest reduction in their
operational emissions intensity between 2020 and 2022 — a measure
of the amount of Scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gases a company produces
relative to its revenue – and Casella is among just three in its
industry to be recognized, and one of two to have been honored in
back-to-back years.
A pioneer in sustainable waste and recycling innovation, Casella
established the first recycling facility in Vermont in 1977,
recognized the benefits of organics and food waste recovery in the
1990’s, and was a charter member of the EPA’s Climate Leaders
program in 2005.
“Sustainable innovation in material, resource, and waste
management has been central to our business since its founding,”
said John W. Casella, Chairman and CEO of Casella. “As the only
waste and recycling company among the founding members of the EPA
Climate Leaders program, we recognized our ability to improve our
own sustainability while also enabling our customers and the
communities we serve to operate more sustainably. For every metric
ton of greenhouse gas emitted through our operations, we prevent
more than four metric tons of greenhouse gas emissions through our
recycling, energy, and carbon sequestration services.”
Casella’s history as a leader in sustainability is marked by
several milestones in materials management, and its focus on
climate leadership has been present for more than two decades. The
company’s climate achievements were recognized in 2012 by the EPA,
the Association of Climate Change Officers, the Center for Climate
and Energy Solutions, and the Climate Registry with a Climate
Leadership Award for Excellence in GHG management.
“It is essential to all our key stakeholders that we link
meaningful economic and environmental progress in advancing
sustainability,” said Casella. “This has been central to our
success and growth as a business for several decades, and it is
always an honor to have those efforts recognized by others. Our
industry is evolving, and we are proud to be among the leaders of
this evolution.”
