Equity in Action: Maximize Your Impact

authentic ESG strategies

The Seneca Nation’s tribally owned businesses are the main sources of revenue to the national government and its 8,500 enrolled members. All profits from Seneca Environmental support the government’s operating needs, including programs like the full-immersion Seneca language preservation school and projects like the recently completed high-speed internet infrastructure build-out.

Workforce development is a priority as well: Seneca Environmental and our parent company, Seneca Holdings, employ and train Seneca Nation members through a comprehensive internship program for college-aged Seneca youths and full-time employment to grow the number of Senecas in the companies’ workforce.

By doing business with us, you will directly support the future of a Native community that has been deeply impacted by systemic injustice yet has a legacy of resilience. At Seneca Environmental, we’re redefining this legacy for Senecas now and far into the future.

All Seneca Environmental RECs come with the added impact of doing business with a tribally owned company and supporting a tribal nation.

We also offer additional higher-impact RECs that further enhance that impact. Some of these are from projects in regions of high carbon intensity on the grid, increasing the impact of switching to renewable energy there. Others come with project enhancements that provide Earth-healing benefits beyond just megawatt-hours, which we call +1s. These +1 project enhancements include community consultation, workforce training, protecting and nurturing water and soil health, and combining solar arrays with agriculture.

Seneca Environmental also has the capability to procure from a limited supply of high-impact RECs from tribally owned projects.
