aesthetically pleasing composting solution in the new available space.

About GreenLight Solutions
GreenLightSolutions is a student
sustainability consulting
organizationwith two primary
purposes:
1. To educate organizations about
sustainability practices by designing
and promoting customized solutions
in order to create a more sustainable
world.
2. A means for students at Arizona State
Universityto expand and utilize their
academic learning about
sustainability and apply it to solve
real-world problems for
organizations.
Our student members understand the
application of the science of sustainability from a
trans disciplinary approach. We are able to
address a broad spectrum of local and global
challenges, including complex economic, social,
and environmental issues. Our expertise
includes, but is not limited to: strategic
sustainability planning, energy, materials,
design, and technology; water quality issues and
scarcity; international development; ecosystem
services; social and urban dynamics; food and
food systems; and policy-making and
governance.
Our goal is to bring specialized knowledge into
private and public organizations and to
collaborate in ways that transcend traditional
dynamics. Our desire to create a better world
has driven us to acquire the knowledge that
gives us the capacity to design solutions that
redefine successful organizations.
GreenLight Solutions sprouted from students of
the ASU School of Sustainability (SOS), and is
advised by sustainability experts from the
Global Institute of Sustainability (GIOS). In
addition, we maintain a close working
relationship with the Walton Sustainability
Solutions Initiatives at ASU.
Extentof Work Possible by
GreenLightSolutions
GreenLight Solutions is dedicated to producing
the highest quality work possible, but situations
may arise in which an unfavorable outcome is
encountered. GreenLight Solutions is only
responsible for ensuring the quality of our
consulting services and assumes no liability for
any outcomes that may result from them. In
addition, the implementation of the designed
solution is entirely the responsibility of the client.
However, GreenLight Solutions will gladly help
clients find the right people for the job.
Develop a team of about 5 student members to
work on evaluating, strategizing, and implanting
agreed upon projects. GreenLight Solution’s
students will be able to provide typically 5 hours
per week each, for approximately 8 weeks per
project. The number of students, hours per
week, and length of each project will depend
upon your goals as the client and the academic
constraints of our student consultants.
Engagements will typically be structured around
ASU semester timelines, but may be extended
into breaks or across semesters only if
absolutely needed.
