Mariners mark 50th Anniversary of Earth Day

Even with the 2020 Major League Baseball season on hold, the Seattle Mariners are celebrating the 50th Anniversary of Earth Day on Wednesday, and highlighting the team’s ongoing commitment to ensuring that T-Mobile Park is one of the greenest ballparks in baseball.

Sustainability Leader

The Mariners have long been leaders in sustainability through recycling, composting, and energy efficient practices at T-Mobile Park. Nearly everything used at the ballpark is recyclable or compostable, which has helped the team achieve an annual recycling rate that averages over 85%. Every year since 2010, Major League Baseball has named the Mariners American League Recycling Champions, and in 2017, the Mariners received the Green Glove Award as MLB’s top recycling team.
