Toyota is changing the world! I mean, we already know that a Toyota changed your world – because Toyota vehicles are totally awesome – but the company itself is actively Changing The World. And that’s not a nebulous statement, either. Toyota has been recognized by Fortune Magazine as one of the top 10 companies that are changing the world. How, you ask? Read on!

Toyota has been listed as number 8 out of 50 companies on the list because of their strategy to reduce carbon emissions and their introduction of the Mirai, the new hydrogen fuel cell vehicle, to the mass market. This is huge! Using hydrogen instead of gasoline cuts emissions and makes the Mirai one of the greenest vehicles out there. The hydrogen fuel cell is also way more sustainable and can contribute to a greener future for the world. That’s definitely world-changing, right?

Because of Toyota’s track record with awesome hybrid vehicles, this isn’t the first time the company has made this list. This is actually the second time in three years that Toyota has made this list. Of course, the list has only been around since 2015, but Toyota’s on a solid 2-out-of-3. You can’t shake a stick at that! Especially because according to the Shared Value Initiative, who helps create this list, companies rarely appear more than once… but not every company is Toyota!

Hopefully, Toyota will work even more on sustainability in vehicles. There will always be work to be done in terms of healing our environment, and we can’t just give up cars. We need them too much! Toyota looks at that and says, “okay, sure, but how can we make this better?” That’s how we got the Prius, and that’s how we’ll get whatever comes next after the Mirai. Here’s to a greener future with Toyota!
