Pick up any business publication, chamber newsletter or hometown newspaper and you’re apt to see a photo of smiling people in dress clothes, holding golden shovels and standing in an empty field. It’s an iconic image, one associated with jobs, investment and growth.

Entergy was named the winner of a Bronze Stevie® Award during the 18th annual American Business Awards®. Entergy was recognized in the "Other Publications" category for its 2019 report, "Climate Scenario Analysis and Evaluation of Risks and Opportunities," where the company announced new steps it is taking to deliver cleaner energy solutions and promote a lower carbon future for all its stakeholders. The report was produced almost completely with internal Entergy resources, from statistical analysis and writing to design and layout.

The Arbor Day Foundation has named Entergy a 2020 Tree Line USA® utility in honor of its commitment to proper tree pruning, planting and care in the provider’s service area. Tree Line USA, a partnership between the Foundation and the National Association of State Foresters, recognizes public and private utilities for pursuing practices that protect and enhance America's urban trees. Tree Line USA promotes the dual goals of delivering safe and reliable electricity while maintaining healthy community forests. “Trees are a critical part of urban landscapes all across the United States,” said Dan Lambe, president of the Arbor Day Foundation. “They provide important benefits to residents, including clean air and water. Service providers like Entergy demonstrate that it’s possible for trees and utilities to co-exist for the benefit of communities and citizens.” Entergy achieved Tree Line USA by meeting five program standards. Utilities must follow industry standards for quality tree care; provide annual worker training in best tree care practices; sponsor a tree planting and public education program; maintain a tree-based energy conservation program; and participate in an Arbor Day celebration.
