How we are taking action:
Our Las Vegas Polymer Center is creating high-quality recycled plastics for use in consumer packaging, enabling true bottle-to-bottle circularity. Republic Services' second Polymer Center is opening later this year in Indianapolis.
We're currently involved with 68 landfill gas projects that are producing renewable energy or sustainable alternative fuels with more in various stages of development.
This year, Republic Services is partnering with 15 community organizations to support sustainable neighborhood projects positively impacting 2 million people.
Making the industry's largest commitment to fleet electrification and expecting 50% of our truck purchases to be electric by 2028.
