the world is turning over a new leaf Because today we see our environment more clearly than ever before, and realize it’s time to turn our thoughts into action. At Macy’s, we are operating in ways that are more sensitive to the environment, from reducing energy use and adopting renewable energy sources, to consuming less paper and buying more that’s recycled. We are offering products with organic and sustainable content and recycling more of the waste generated by our own operations. In doing so, we pledge to reduce our impact on the environment for a more sustainable future. We pledge to join our customers and associates in taking a turn for the better.

Macy’s community culture encourages employees to individually give of themselves. Through our volunteer program, Partners in Time, employees clean beaches, plant trees and create gardens. We are proud of the spirited response of our employees to the needs of our environment.

Macy’s believes in giving back to our local communities. Our contributions, leadership and volunteerism help create stronger, healthier places to live and work, as well as a stronger, healthier environment.

Earth Day began in the 1960s as the dream of one man, Senator Gaylord Nelson, and was pronounced a national holiday on April 22, 1970. Millions of people embraced the idea, taking their own initiatives to make this day a celebration of the Earth. It’s an amazing success story of grassroots efforts, made one at a time, by citizens like you.

Nine ways to help the environment. The world is turning over a new leaf, and you can, too.

one

three

Go solar. You can meet up to 100% of your home electricity needs and help soften your carbon footprint on the world’s eco-systems by installing solar panels. Macy’s has begun converting stores to solar power too. Go online to www.macys.com/newleaf for details, starting April 7!

Leave the car at home. Ride a bike or walk to work if you can. Discover your own route. Now that’s thinking on your feet.

two

Plant a native tree. Think of it as a gift to wildlife and to the planet. It’s also an investment in the future, because native trees are more likely to thrive naturally over time and to nurture biodiversity. Your local birds, butterflies and animals will love it and in return you will use less water, less fertilizer and have less gardening to worry about.

four

Volunteer. Conservation, environmental and national park groups all need your help. Best of all? Everyone can join in on the fun. Call up some friends and make a day of it...or meet up with an organized group and tag along. Either way, you’ll be surprised at the sense of pride, community and the all around good karma that sprouts up along the way.

five

Mulch. Ugly word. Beautiful results. It’s as simple as feeding your garden soil shredded leaves, compost or grass clippings to keep weeds down and conserve water.

eight

Grasscycling. It’s a new term for leaving your grass clippings on the lawn after you mow. It gives your lawn nutrients and saves you work. Your lawn looks good. You look good.

seven

ER

A NEW LE

AF

TU R N OV

Love your local parks. Parklands increase the beauty, health and livability of your home town. When you support your local parks, everything looks, and feels, like a better place to live.

nine

six

Start a carpool. Every person who eliminates 25 miles of driving a day could also eliminate up to 6 tons of CO2 from being added to our atmosphere each year.

Recycle. When you put plastic, paper and glass in its place, you are helping to divert millions of tons of material from landfills and incinerators. In fact, up to 75% of household waste can be recycled. And when you purchase products made from recycled materials, you’re helping to put the best spin on “what goes around comes around”.
