Sustainability
Speaking plainly, sustainability is a measured effort to operate a business with a goal of minimizing environmental impact.
Sustainable companies identify and change practices, and the underlying culture that fosters them, that waste resources or uses energy inefficiently.
Organizations striving to increase their sustainability create work environments that champion and reward energy conservation and recycling initiatives.
Companies striving to engage in real sustainability commit to building space that conforms to USGBC LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) guidelines.
Sustainability comes from all levels of an organization. In sustainable companies all stakeholders are motivated to adopt a level of corporate citizenship that will serve as a standard for addressing energy and conservation issues today and in the future.
The Rewards of Sustainable Development
Most company leaders are now attuned to the tenet that ‘sustainability pays,’ and realize that there are financial rewards, not losses, for committing:
- Significant tax credits, incentives and rebates available for LEED and Energy Star compliance
- Reduced energy and overall operational costs with renewable, energy efficient resources
- Increased building valuation with greater market appeal
- Lowered healthcare costs through healthier working environments
