TURQUESA—Spanish for turquoise

It's a blend of blue and green, an abstract symbol of the world we cherish and strive to protect.

Blue evokes our atmosphere and climate, our oceans, rivers, and the life they sustain.
Green reflects Earth's landscapes, forests, and the countless species that call them home.

Together, Turquesa represents the infinite but fragile relationships between the greens and blues of our planet.
