Environmental improvement
Investing in a greener future
We know creating green spaces and protecting our waterways are critical to the planet's health. Achieving a positive impact takes the combined effort and shared knowledge of many — and we're doing our part. We've enhanced our commitment by changing product formulations and improving application devices. We’ve also formed alliances with important environmental partners across the U.S.
National Partner Network
With our foundation, we’ve built a National Partner Network (NPN) of experts and environmental organizations committed to protecting our waterways, green spaces and pollinator habitats.
The NPN’s member organizations reach millions of people, and together, we're collaborating to solve environmental challenges. Discover the difference our partners are making.
