As a company that prides itself on developing and nurturing landscapes that inspire and enhance communities, deploying environmentally sustainable strategies and solutions is the keystone to what BrightView – the nation’s leading commercial landscaping company – does on Earth Day and every day.

“Our team members not only create and maintain the best landscapes on Earth, but they do so with sustainability top of mind,” said Andrew Masterman, BrightView President and Chief Executive Officer. “Taking these measures to ensure future generations enjoy a cleaner and greener Earth is core to our beliefs. It’s who we are. It’s how we operate.” 

Aligning with its enterprise-wide Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) strategy and as outlined in its 2022 ESG Report, BrightView is committed to minimizing its impact on Mother Earth.

As the landscaping industry’s leader, BrightView’s goal of reducing carbon emissions by 90 percent and becoming carbon neutral by 2035 resides this infographic on its five-step approach:
