Partner Profile Esurance is an online auto insurance company that encourages environmental stewardship in all facets of its business, beginning with its daily operations and moving outward to its customers and the public at large. Operationally, Esurance has cut down on waste through its "Are You Thinking Green?" internal initiative. Through this program, reusable drinkware was distributed to all 1,800+ associates and recycling programs, including the use of recycled office products, were implemented in all of Esurance's offices. Furthermore, a national network of green associates provides tips about how to further environmentally friendly practices in the workplace. Esurance also purchases green power equal to 100% of the electricity used in each of its permanent U.S. office locations by investing in wind farms in Texas. In addition to its operational initiatives, Esurance has received awards and recognition for being the first in its industry to nationally advertise and promote environmental messages focused on carpooling and carbon footprint reduction. In addition to honors for its awareness building efforts, Esurance is also a member of the EPA's Green Power Leadership Club, a distinction that the Partnership gives to Green Power Partners that far exceed minimum purchase requirements. "As an insurance company, we are very aware of the repercussions of climate change," said Gary Tolman, Chief Executive Officer of Esurance. "By joining the EPA's Green Power Partnership Leadership Club, Esurance joins a great group of companies who are taking steps to help protect our environment by investing in alternative energy."
