The Sustainable Group
The Sustainable Group was founded to take action and promote education on climate change and global warming, which are widely considered to be among the most serious threats facing our planet today. Though slowing or reversing global climate change can seem an insurmountable challenge, it’s our position that through a combination of conservation and carbon offsetting we can still make a big difference.
We’re here to help businesses and individuals understand their unique “carbon footprint,” and how to offset it. We’d like to see every business, and every individual, take steps to reduce their energy consumption and also become carbon neutral.
Reducing greenhouse gas emissions is a critical factor in slowing the rise of global surface temperatures. There are many ways to leave a smaller carbon footprint, including replacing coal and petroleum based energy with clean, renewable sources (such as solar, wind and tide energy), creating new efficiency standards for buildings and vehicles, and providing better infrastructure for public transit.
Whoever you are, whatever your business, we’re here to help you reduce your greenhouse gas emissions – through conservation and behavior change as well as through participation in innovative, market-based solutions.
Here’s how:
- We’ll educate the public on global warming, its causes and its effects.
- We’ll estimate your carbon footprint
- We’ll offset your carbon footprint
- We’ll provide funds to educate elementary school students on ecological issues, such as recycling, pollution control, and understanding carbon footprints.
