Since 2014, the #RE100 initiative has been working behind the scenes with businesses and organizations of all sizes and sectors to negotiate transitions to 100 percent renewable electricity.  The reason is simple:  shift to 100 percent renewable electricity and you massively reduce the amount of carbon pollution you produce as a company.

The initiative has seen a steady stream of successes as companies that have committed to the pledge include Coca-Cola, Apple, IKEA, Google, Starbucks, and Walmart.  But on July 10 something big happened as #RE100 announced that 100 companies had officially pledged to transition to renewable electricity.
