Forbes names Honda a "Green Giant"

Fortune Magazine Names Honda a "Green Giant"


MAR. 21 - Fortune magazine today released a list of the top ten companies in the world that have "gone beyond what the law requires to operate in an environmentally responsible way." Following is an excerpt from the story:

"While other automakers gripe, Honda attacks the issues of fuel economy and emissions with relish. Working independently, it is focusing on three alternative fuel technologies: gas-electric hybrid, clean diesel and fuel cell. Honda has also taken a crack at solving a problem other automakers have left to the oil companies: creating an infrastructure for hydrogen. Honda's solution is for individual refueling stations that provide heat and electricity for the home as well as hydrogen for a fuel-cell-powered car. Long term, Honda wants to be the world's cleanest, most efficient manufacturer. It has promised to reduce CO2 emissions from its factories as well as its vehicles by 5 percent between 2005 and 2010 - on top of the 5 percent it achieved between 2000 and 2005."

The Other Nine Greenest Companies:

Continental Airlines - Houston, Texas, USA
Suncor - Canada
Tesco - Britain
Alcan - Canada
PG&E - San Francisco, Calif., USA
S.C. Johnson - Racine, Wis., USA
Goldman Sachs - New York, N.Y., USA
Swiss Re - Switzerland
Hewlett Packard - Palo Alto, Calif., USA
