NVIDIA Snags Green Award From Silicon Valley Nonprofit Posted: 30 May 2012 11:00 AM PDT Our ongoing commitment to global citizenship hasn't gone unnoticed by the eco-minded folks at Acterra, who champion environmentalism in Silicon Valley. The nonprofit just awarded us its 2012 Business Environmental Award for large-company environmental sustainability. This comes just a few months after Newsweek ranked us #10 on its list of America's Greenest Companies, up from 188th place last year and 314th place in 2010. The Business Environmental Award celebrates NVIDIA's approach to managing our environmental impact across three areas:
The Acterra judges were especially impressed by our efforts to integrate environmental considerations across all aspects of our business – from the way NVIDIA engages employees to build energy efficient products to NVIDIA's goal to reduce our environmental footprint on our campus and out in the community. The Acterra Business Environmental Awards, initiated in 1990, are one of the Bay Area's oldest and most prestigious environmental recognition programs. NVIDIA will be honored at the 2012 Business Environmental Awards Reception on Thursday, May 31 in Palo Alto, Calif. Acterra offers thousands of volunteer programs that help improve the environment – ranging from habitat restoration to carbon reduction.
