Your organization may be doing more than others realize to act sustainably. Prioritizing efficiency, buying carbon offsets and choosing renewable energy all demonstrate a commitment to conserving power and addressing environmental pollution. However, customers and stakeholders won’t know about your sustainability efforts if you don’t publicize them.
Here are seven things your business can do to share your environmental strides with energy.
With the proliferation of public sustainability commitments, stakeholders and customers want to know exactly how organizations plan to make good on their promises. Most sustainability goals fall into three broad categories – waste, water and energy. Report how you plan to make your goals a reality. When it comes to energy, installing more efficient lights and appliances, offsetting your power usage and purchasing renewable energy are all ways to mitigate your business' environmental impact.
Explain how sustainability creates value for your shareholders, employees, customers and the planet. Describe where sustainability fits into your broader business strategy and contextualize it in ways people can understand.
Whether you are working on a year-end review or outlining your goals for next year, reflecting on and sharing your progress can go a long way to engage, motivate and inspire your customers and employees.
