Our PEACE framework gives you confidence to pursue sustainability.
Below you’ll find information on many sustainability topics, but the overriding theme is making it:
Practical: Sustainability needs to be actionable! We provide toolkits, checklists, and step-by-step guidance.
Economical: We aim to include the selling points and business case of sustainability initiatives.
Approachable: There's too much blaming and shaming. We want you to feel good about the next step, not bad for the previous ones.
Celebrated: We applaud every plate of food donated, every email you didn’t print, every day you take public transportation, and every time you show up to learn. We elevate and amplify those doing good, no matter how small their efforts.
Enjoyable: Sustainability is an uphill battle. We can't change that, but as we climb the mountain, we want to experience growth, comradery, fun, enlightenment, inspiration, and joy. We emphasize teamwork and discovery.
Sustainability is a journey. We hope our content serves as guide and encouragement!

GRRRRREAT Ideas for Landfill Diversion
In this blog, I share some brief examples for each of the Rs in the landfill diversion equation: rethink, reduce, reuse, repurpose, and recycle. The rethink step is especially important.! There’s also a link to a playback of a webinar on single-use plastics and one on recycled content.
Avoid the Domino Effect with a Prevention Mindset
Many studies focus on what to do with waste once it is created. We need to talk more about PREVENTION! It’s similar to the problem we see in healthcare – a focus on treatment (e.g., drugs, surgery), rather than prevention (healthy diet and exercise).
