The Environmental Golden Thread - Connecting the Dots

Many organizations are struggling to meet all their environmental obligations

Join us for this free webinar to learn how you can deliver more than the sum of your parts by connecting the dots of your environmental initiatives.

We will cover the 12 Environmental Pillars and discuss challenges unique to managing environmental obligations.

You will also learn about a new strategy called the Environmental Golden Thread that looks at the future through an integrated lens, delivering operational and stakeholder value while maintaining a long-term focus.

This webinar is for organizations in the private and public sectors.

Background:

The number of initiatives directed towards environmental regulations, standards, and stakeholder obligations is increasing across all levels of governments, private sector, and the public at large.

However, it is at the municipal level where this is most acute as almost everything there intersects with the environment. Municipalities are where public policy comes face to face with the environment. It is where the rubber metaphorically and physically meets the road.

To better understand how local governments are contending with environmental objectives we compiled a list of municipal environmental initiatives across Canada. This data includes: key goals, objectives, policy influences, and municipal resources summarized into what we are calling The 12 Environmental Pillars:

These pillars are shaping environmental policies for local communities and for businesses that operate within them. However, for many these are handled separately and often without co-ordination of effort or purpose.

With all that is at stake we believe these pillars must be addressed collectively as a whole. A "golden thread" approach is required to bind these pillars together so that initiatives are effective and deliver more than the sum of their parts.
