Community Impact

With a commitment to sustainability, we give priority consideration to organizations whose programs preserve and/or enhance renewable resources and empower environmental stewards.

By engaging with people in the communities where we operate, we can understand their needs while addressing our operational impacts to help those communities thrive. Learn more about Environmental Justice in the WM Sustainability Hub.
