As a company, Best Buy is dedicated to adapting and evolving our business to reduce carbon emissions and waste.

Reducing carbon emissions for our customers by 20%.

Working together to achieve our goals.
Our initiatives to help the environment.
At Best Buy Canada we're tackling multiple initiatives to promote sustainability and improve our relationship with the environment.
Promoting energy-efficient products.
We're offering a wide range of eco-friendly products that conserve resources, such as ENERGY STAR™ certified products. These products can help you reduce energy usage and monthly costs.
Finding ways to increase overall efficiencies.
As a company, we're exploring how we can be more efficient and environmentally friendly across the organization. Some examples include converting all our store lighting to LED, adopting routing logic to reduce fuel consumption across our Geek Squad fleet and delivery service, and operating an energy management system at our Canadian headquarters.
The Green Team.
We've created a team, selected from different areas of Best Buy Canada, dedicated to helping us achieve our sustainability objectives. The Green Team assesses if we're doing enough to meet our goals and works to raise awareness of our environmental efforts with team members, customers, and vendors.
