Mission: Sustainable Industry (SI) is a non-profit, public benefit, tax-exempt organization, incorporated in 2002. Our overall mission is "accelerating progress toward a sustainable society." Our means of achieving this goal include designing and delivering education and training, conducting research, publishing information, advising organizations on sustainability strategies, and organizing conferences and workshops.
Programs: Innovating for Sustainability. Accelerating progress toward a sustainable society will require both incremental and radical innovation in every sphere of society. Innovations are necessary to dramatically reduce the resource intensity of industrial activity and consumer demand, to address the massive social inequities that exist today, and to overcome persistent barriers to sustainable development. Complex issues such as climate change, emergence of megacities, resource conflicts and the explosive growth of global trade demand innovative solutions within firms, within and across industries, in educational institutions, in government agencies, in civil society organizations, and in collaborative efforts across all sectors and cultures.
