Fastfoodketens zijn koplopers in groen ondernemen in de Verenigde Staten. Van de 38 restaurants in de Verenigde Staten die gecertificeerd duurzaam, ‘groen’ en milieubesparend zijn, behoort veertig procent tot een fastfoodketen.

Ze zijn koplopers bij het bouwen van LEED-gecertificeerde restaurants. LEED staat voor Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design, en wordt uitgegeven door de U.S. Green Building Council.

Ook in Europa staan een aantal milieuvriendelijke restaurants. McDonald’s heeft er twee waarvan een in Bremen. Burger King opende onlangs in Duitsland ook een ‘groene’ vestiging.
