NRF releases report on the carbon footprint of retail purchases

The Nature Action Forum is accepting applications for a cohort of corporate sustainability professionals that will begin meeting in April 2023 to help companies progress on their nature programs.

The Environmental Protection Agency has identified urban stormwater runoff as the fastest growing source of water pollution in the United States. Companies and communities rely on clean water, yet not enough businesses are paying attention to the impact they have on water quality.

This is a milestone year for Pure Strategies, with 2023 marking 25 years in business. The journey over this time has been rewarding and we are grateful to our clients, employees, and the partnerships that helped shape it and make it better than we could have ever imagined.

Climate targets demand biodiversity and agriculture interventions. While funding has been far less than needed, that may not be the case for long.

The Best in Business award is given in recognition for the “foresight, caring, and dedication to prioritize positive impact—impact on clients and customers, on community, on industry and environment, and even on society.”

2022 is expected to be a milestone year for nature. COP15 aims to finalize a new Global Framework for Biodiversity. For the first time, business-specific targets are included in the draft framework.

Pure Strategies is helping companies align with the COP27 vision for concrete action and progress to address the shared climate crisis.

As a U.S. Plastics Pact Activator, Pure Strategies is committed to helping businesses transition to a more circular economy, such as increasing the use of post-consumer recycled (PCR) plastic in packaging.

Climate is a dirty business, join the fight to leave only clean fingerprints behind.

When companies incorporate their mission into the DNA of their company structure, they protect their long-term vision and fully commit to using business as a force for good.

The timing is prime for businesses to take on greater funding and collaborative leadership roles for biodiversity conservation, but more is needed to scale up private support.

We are proud to share our progress on advancing B Corp values and our vision during 2021 with highlights of the work we are doing to realize our vision of a world where the climate is stabilized, nature is restored, and we have achieved a safe and socially equitable world.

Companies can incorporate online resources and climate consulting firms, like Pure Strategies, in their work to reduce emissions, protect the environment, and shape a regenerative economy.

We have witnessed notable growth and interest in sustainable packaging regulations. Many companies are leading the way, with innovative programs to revamp their packaging designs to reduce waste and increase recyclability, including Mars, Walmart, MilliporeSigma, and PepsiCo. Yet, all companies are faced with the complex world of government regulations, penalties, and guidelines to progress toward safer, more sustainable packaging - so where to start?

The U.S. Plastics Pact aims to realize a new path for plastic packaging by 2025, one that is more circular. The group has been working since late 2020 to plan and take the first steps toward this big ambition.

A hidden challenge with plastic strategies is a lack of clarity about what materials are considered plastic and preferred solutions.

Pure Strategies is excited to offer a unique opportunity for students, recent graduates, and early-stage professionals that are interested in a career in corporate sustainability, especially those with identities underrepresented in the field of corporate sustainability, to participate in a four-month long formal mentoring program.
