The steps we take today to preserve our planet will have major repercussions on the health and well-being of our children. That's why we're recognizing companies that are ahead of the pack in supporting environmentally safe business models. These 20 companies have demonstrated inspiring innovation—from the ingredients and creative packaging they use to how they build their facilities and run their manufacturing plants. All of them are making extraordinary eco-strides and, in some cases, dramatically making up for past missteps. Here, we present our inaugural award to those companies whose progressive thinking, inventive policies and pioneering spirit are helping to make the world a greener, cleaner place for our children.

Every company that puts serious effort into sustainability has a multiplying effect on work that nonprofits and individuals are shouldering to prevent further ecological damage from occurring. And there's so much we as moms can do.
