 Hybrid friendly Farmers Insurance knows the importance of fuel efficiency for both the environment and the pocketbook. If you drive one in any of 41 states, you get a discount. Farmers understands that drivers of alternative fuel and hybrid vehicles are "more mature, drive fewer miles and are more environmentally conscious that the average driver." When it comes to other efforts, Farmers has recognized the need to change. The company is working on programs to green up its operations from managing a more eco-friendly fleet to adding additional insurance products like pay-as-you-drive.

Farmers gets a lift too from its parent company, Zurich Financial. The European financial giant has a strong environmental policy aimed at educating both employees and customers to be better eco-citizens. A handful of tangible results have so far been realized; like a 10% reduction of carbon output since 2000 and the Green Office program where Zurich offices in Australia are powered by 25% renewable or green power. These efforts helped Zurich land a spot on the Dow Jones Sustainability Index.
