Clean Earth’s 2015 Annual Sustainability Report outlines the company’s four sustainability goals, metrics, and targets. This sustainability report, along with Clean Earth’s 2016 – 2018 Sustainability Plan, focused on “Nurturing a Culture of Sustainability,” demonstrates Clean Earth’s unwavering commitment to customers, employees, and the environment. For example, in 2015 Clean Earth adopted technology to track fuel consumption on all off-road fleet and driving behavior of on-road fleet. Management teams monitor fuel data and work directly with the field crews to ensure the fleet is running efficiently. By incorporating this initiative and technology, Clean Earth was able to reduce fuel consumption over 30% from last year. In addition, over 700 tons of CO2 was averted in 2015 by switching transportation routes from truck to rail to Clean Earth facilities.
