The most sustainable companies are ranked on their performance reducing carbon and waste, revenues derived from clean products, and overall sustainability

The Global 100 ranks large corporations across the world on their performance reducing carbon and waste, their gender diversity among leadership, revenues derived from clean products, and overall sustainability. As political and business leaders gather for the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, this week, a roster of the most sustainable companies is also enjoying a moment in the spotlight.

In second place on the roster is Kering SA, a French firm better known for the consumer-facing brands it owns: fashion houses Gucci, Yves Saint Laurent and Alexander McQueen, among others. The brand has shown it takes sustainability seriously by sourcing more than 40% of its products from certified sustainable sources, says Heaps, and is always scanning for ways to improve that percentage.

Third in the Global 100 ranking is Neste Corporation, which held second place last year. Based in Finland, Neste is a petroleum refinery and marketing company with annual revenue of more than $10 billion.
