Omnicom takes top honors in Newsweek's Green Rankings 2009 report—among ad holding companies, that is. It is quite a bit back in the pack, at No. 472, out of 500 companies ranked. And the list is composed only of U.S-based companies. (Thus, WPP and Publicis were not eligible.) Omnicom managed to land a full two spots ahead of No. 474 Interpublic Group, due largely to a stronger corporate reputation (see the Reputation Survey criterion). Omnicom clients, on the other hand, turned up among environmental leaders: with the greenest of the green including Hewlett-Packard, Intel, Wells Fargo and Sprint Nextel, among others.
