This Earth Month we are using our platform to share sustainability stories in action by launching a new podcast series, Approachable Sustainability. This series features interviews by our Sustainability Program Manager, Leah Mowery, with Green Business Benchmark° customers who are leading the way in sustainability. Each episode provides an in-depth look at the strategies, tools, and techniques these organizations are employing to reduce their environmental impact and create a more sustainable future. We discuss key topics and terms within their industry, challenges they’ve faced along the way, and what gives them a competitive advantage. Beyond operations, we also discuss why their work is meaningful to them and what gives them hope for the future.
Why Approachable Sustainability? At the Green Business Benchmark°, we are dedicated to promoting sustainable business practices and believe that showcasing our members' incredible work is one of the most effective ways to inspire change. Sustainable business practices are more important now than ever before. Climate change, resource depletion, and other environmental challenges are threatening the health of our planet and our communities. By highlighting the successes of our customers, we hope to inspire other organizations to take action and join us in the fight for a more sustainable future.
We firmly believe that sustainability is approachable and achievable for all organizations, regardless of size or industry. Sustainability is approachable because it is not just about making big, dramatic changes. Rather, it is about making small, incremental changes in the way we do things, and continuously improving over time. These small changes can add up to significant improvements in sustainability and can transform the way organizations operate.
Additionally, sustainable practices can often lead to cost savings and increased efficiency, making them not only good for the planet but also good for business. For example, using energy-efficient lighting can significantly reduce energy costs, while implementing a recycling program can save money on waste disposal.
There is a wide range of tools, resources, and support available to organizations that want to become more sustainable. Green Business Benchmark° provides sustainability management software that helps organizations build a sustainability program to meet their unique goals, so they can create lasting, meaningful change. After assessing and scoring your current sustainability practices, our software-as-a-service (SaaS) platform will help you identify, prioritize, and execute the most impactful improvements for your organization. Through this new series, we hope to demonstrate that sustainable practices are not only good for the planet but can also be good for business. Our customers have found that implementing sustainability into their business model has resulted in increased efficiency, cost savings, and customer loyalty.
