At Applied Materials, we strive to Make Possible® a Better Future every day - and one of the ways we activate this vision is through our EarthWorks environmental campaign.

\r\n

Throughout the spring, Applied Materials employees from across the globe joined together to explore the natural world and inspire action for environmental sustainability. This effort includes activities from nature hikes to seedling transplants and beyond!

\r\n

This year, over 2,500 employees mobilized to protect our planet and enjoy nature. In celebration of these efforts, the Applied Materials Foundation will donate funds to plant a tree in recognition of each participant.
