Target Sustainability- Your Business & The Environment
Friday, May 28th, 2010Marrickville Council hosted a breakfast on Thursday morning for their Target Sustainability Network Group. They meet to learn and share information about how to reduce waste, energy, water and run efficient, cost effective and economically sustaining businesses.
Sarah Mandelson CEO of Serendipity Ice Cream spoke about the steps and savings her company has made. Strategies that use green energy while they also recycle, reuse and involve their local community. Not only making reductions, but also using a process, that educates others.
As part of the meeting we visited The Bowery Co-Op a non-for profit business that collects, fixes and sells a wide range of used items and Reverse garbage who have a great gallery as well as their large shed full of fascinating perused or unused materials.
