Descripción

Raise your employees’ awareness of environmental and sustainability issues through the online course Corporate Sustainability!

All products/services have a life cycle.

When we make decisions about what product to buy, which material to choose, which bin to throw something in, or which supplier to select, without knowing how sustainable it is (environmentally, socially, and economically), we are acting irresponsibly and become easy targets for greenwashing.

If we don’t view products/services through a “life cycle” lens, we risk making changes at one stage (e.g., swapping one raw material for another) that unintentionally cause greater harm in another stage, simply due to lack of knowledge.

This course, FUNDAE-subsidized in Spain, is ideal for companies that want to create or sustain a corporate sustainability culture. It will help you build a motivated and engaged workforce that applies sustainability both within and outside the company.

Why should employees be trained in sustainability?

  • Because sustainability regulations and standards are becoming more demanding, requiring trained and aware employees.
  • Because we are all consumers who make decisions that impact the environment and society, either positively or negatively.
  • Because building a corporate sustainability culture keeps employees motivated, reduces costs, and sets your company apart from the competition.

What happens when the life cycle perspective is ignored?

Plastic bag or paper bag? Electric hand dryer or paper towels? Rechargeable batteries?

Thinking systemically instead of linearly helps prevent shifting environmental impacts from one stage of the life cycle to another. Build a SUSTAINABILITY CULTURE in your company!
