Like Bill Gates, who started his charitable foundation, Scott happens to be promoting Walmart’s image at a time when his company’s reputation is declining.He acknowledges that he launched the plan partly to shield (保护) Walmart from bad press about its contribution to global warming.“By doing what we’re doing today, we avoid the headline risks that are going to come for people who did not do anything，”he says.“At some point businesses will be held responsible for the actions they take.”Meanwhile, should Walmart succeed in shrinking its environmental footprints and lowering prices for green products, both the planet and the company would profit.
