One more Earth Day event to Thursday, April 21, 2011 8:00 AM - 12:00 PM (Eastern Time)

My neighbor is both an environmentalist and a member of the DIA. I wonder if she's going. I'll ask her tomorrow.
Join with Grand River Printing & Imaging at the Detroit Institute of Arts on April 21st from 8:00am to noon to learn practical ways to reduce, reuse and recycle ... and reap rewards.Suddenly, this topic looks a lot more interesting. Time to do to Ford what I did to Walmart--examine their sustainbility pages.
This year our speaker is Andy Acho, environmental initiative expert and former Worldwide Director of Environmental Strategy and Outreach at Ford Motor Company. At 9:30am in the DIA Lecture Hall, Andy will be sharing some of his experiences and best-practices at the corporate level that demonstrate how being environmentally sustainable is also about good business.
2009/10 Sustainability Report
Ford Motor Company has published its 11th annual non-financial report, entitled Blueprint for Sustainability - The Future at Work.In two paragraphs, Ford already looks better than Walmart. If nothing else, they talk about values and society in addition to touting how their actions are good for both the environment and the bottom line. Of course, that's just the exterior. For an examination of how things look under the hood, read the rest at Crazy Eddie's Motie News.
Our vision is for our sustainability reporting to demonstrate our values, as well as to reflect and drive outstanding economic, environmental and social performance.
