オーガニック食品を扱うスーパーマーケットといえば、ここアメリカではWhole Foodsが有名ですが、２００６年分の電力消費をまかなえるだけのクレジットを風力発電会社から購入したそうです。
AUSTIN, TEXAS. January 10, 2006. Whole Foods Market, the world’s leading natural and organic foods supermarket, has made a landmark purchase of renewable energy credits from wind farms to offset 100% of the electricity used in all of its stores, facilities, bake houses, distribution centers, regional offices and national headquarters in the United States and Canada. This is the largest wind energy credit purchase in the history of the United States and Canada and makes Whole Foods Market the only Fortune 500 Company purchasing wind energy credits to offset 100% of its electricity use.
