Sustainability-Definitions


1987 Brundtland Commission:

• “Sustainable development is development that meets
  the needs of the present without compromising the
  ability of future generations to meet their own needs”


2005 World Summit

• [sustainability]…requires the reconciliation of
  environmental, social and economic demands - the
  "three pillars" of sustainability

  We work with a variety of clients across a spectrum of industries including, but not limited to: healthcare, food
                             processing, hospitality, manufacturing and distribution.

"As the Chief Operating Officer of a catalog distribution company, I am always striving to find ways to increase efficiencies while reducing
costs. In the twelve months since engaging Focused Sustainability Consulting Group, they have helped us divert over 66 tons of materials
away from being land-filled into a revenue producing recycling stream. Our average gross monthly savings has been over 90% since
their assessment and subsequent recommendations and implementation. The entire experience has been seamless and nothing short of
professional- I would highly recommend Focused Sustainability Consulting Group to any organization looking to reduce costs and increase
efficiencies while reducing their environmental impact."

COO- Catalog Distribution Company, Greater Boston Area

As the Facilities and Safety Manager for a national brand food processing company, I am constantly looking for ways to reduce costs and
our environmental impact. Focused Sustainability Consulting Group has helped us divert over 390 tons of materials into a revenue
producing recycling stream and out of landfills. The Cost-Avoidance component of redirecting these materials has saved us tens-of-
thousands of dollars plus the positive environmental benefit of this diversion has helped our company move closer towards our goal to
become more socially responsible! I would not hesitate to recommend Focused Sustainability Consulting Group.
