Environmental Responsibility

The outdoor advertising industry is and always has been made up of responsible corporate citizens. Being responsible to customers, communities, and our world means taking responsibility for careful stewardship of the environment.

Toward that end, the outdoor advertising industry is working to make itself as environmentally friendly as possible. By March 2009, the vast majority of poster-size billboard copy will be made of recyclable materials. Outdoor advertising companies are working to lessen their carbon footprints and they are being encouraged to join certified programs recognizing environmental excellence.

An OAAA committee has been formed to continuously evaluate the industry’s environmental practices and make recommendations as to future solutions.
