Eco Friendly the Mutual Award. 20 Sustainability Companies

All these companies are held in several Green eco-friendly mutual funds discussed in the ECO MUTUAL FUNDS section of this site.

The 2007 list of companies honors those integrating sustainable practices into their business models and others whose products promote sustainability principles like wind and solar. I rate Vestas as #1, a producer of wind power generation products. COMV and FTEK tie for a close second. Herman Miller (Nasdaq: MLHR) and Interface (Nasdaq: IFSIA) come in third and should be commended for embracing sustainability principles over 10 years ago.
