SUMMARY:Project WearEver Stakeholder Update
DESCRIPTION:Webinar date and time: Thu June 13\, 8-9AM PDT (US)\n\n\n\nClothing provides its greatest benefit to society when it lasts longer\, is used more frequently\, and is reused or recycled.

SUMMARY:Growing Up: How Focusing on Soil Health Can Improve  Sustainability Performance Across an Entire Growing Operation
DESCRIPTION:About\nThe solution to achieving sustainability in agriculture may very well lie just beneath our feet – in the soil. Healthy soils are not only critical to farmers’ livelihoods\, they also provide other benefits that help to address common issues related to food production\, including nutrient and water use efficiency\, on-farm greenhouse gas emissions\, and soil erosion. In this webinar\, we will learn from soil health experts how the implementation of practices to promote soil health can also contribute to improved sustainability outcomes for nutrient management\, greenhouse gas emissions\, and water use at the farm level. We will also explore how collective action in agricultural supply chains helps to ensure positive results for farmers\, food companies\, retailers\, and consumers alike. \n\n\n\nSeries Times and Dates\n\n\nAbout the Achieving Your Sustainability Targets Webinar Series\nThe series will provide you with practical advice for how to make progress in a variety of areas including: Energy\, Deforestation\, Packaging\, Product Use\, Waste\, and Agriculture. These topics mirror Walmart’s Project Gigaton Pillars – each webinar will touch on issues of greenhouse gas emissions\, but will explore other ways to address and tackle sustainability challenges in each area.This free\, virtual series includes six 75-minute webinars from leaders in the sustainability industry. The webinars are best watched live to actively participate in the panel discussion and Q&A.

SUMMARY:IT Ecosystem Webinar Series: EcoVadis
DESCRIPTION:Tier 1 suppliers often struggle to answer retailer-facing KPIs that relate to upstream hotspots because it can be difficult to get the right data\, in the right format\, at the right time. To address this challenge\, TSC has begun dis-aggregating select KPIs into underlying data elements to enable improved upstream data collection and downstream data flow. \nIn conjunction with this effort\, TSC kicked off an IT Ecosystem project earlier in the year with a set of software providers that support multi-tier reporting between companies in the consumer goods value chain. The objective of this project is to improve supply chain connectivity and transparency through a “chain of custody” data model. This data model will allow useful\, actionable\, and consistent sustainability information to more easily reach key decision-makers along the value chain\, driving more informed decisions and engagement with suppliers and customers. \nTSC will be hosting a webinar series with each of the IT platforms participating in the IT Ecosystem project to share progress updates on their pilots: Ecovadis\, SupplyShift\, and UL. TSC members – Keep an eye out for the upcoming webinar invitations! Others can contact Rachael Schaffner for more information. \n  \nWebinar Information\n\n  \nContact\nFor information on joining the webinar series please contact Rachael Schaffner.

SUMMARY:Achieve Your Sustainability Targets: Deforestation
DESCRIPTION:Main Presenter: EDF and Pecuaria Sustentavel da Amazonia (Pecsa)\nPanelists: Arcos Dorados\, HSBC Bank \nAn emerging opportunity in reducing deforestation is in engaging jurisdictions across an entire landscape. Rather than going farm-by-farm to ensure sustainability—which is likely to lead to islands of “green” in a sea of deforestation—a jurisdictional approach allows companies to work with governments and NGOs to create entire regions that are improving along deforestation and productivity metrics. Join Environmental Defense Fund and their partner Pecuaria Sustentavel da Amazonia (Pecsa)\, a for-profit cattle ranching management and partnership firm\, to learn how to take a more holistic approach to tackle deforestation. \n\nSeries Schedule\n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\nWebinars cannot be purchased separately. \n\nEvent Contact\nFor questions or comments please contact Jessica Ginger at jessica.ginger@sustainabilityconsortium.org

SUMMARY:Responding to Complex Key Performance Indicators
DESCRIPTION:TSC is offering an opportunity for suppliers to dive deep into Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) that are more complex in terms of data collection and reporting. At the onset of the webinar\, participants will have a chance to vote on the KPIs they would like to cover (e.g.\, GHG intensity\, Wastewater\, Deforestation\, Chemical safety\, On-farm\, etc.). Based on the voting results\, we will walk through example KPI scenarios as well as calculation tools that have been developed over the past year by TSC to assist in responding.

SUMMARY:Greening Your Freight Moves
DESCRIPTION:EDF+Business is proud to present the Greening the Global Shopping Cart webinar series. \nA webinar with Jason Mathers\, EDF. \nEvery product has a freight journey to from factory to the store shelf. The combined impact of these trips is enormous: retailers spend over $20 billion a year on fuel alone to truck products. Over 300 million tons of carbon pollution are emitted to bring goods to market. Retailers and their suppliers can cut costs and emissions by adopting green freight practices. Join EDF to hear how leaders are leveraging the Five Principles for Greener Freight to create business value; and learn how to launch your own green freight journey.

SUMMARY:Climate Smart Ag
DESCRIPTION:EDF+Business is proud to present the Greening the Global Shopping Cart webinar series. \nA webinar with Jenny Ahlen\, EDF. \nGlobally\, agriculture is responsible for one-third of greenhouse gas emissions. Excess use of nitrogen fertilizer produces a greenhouse gas 300x more powerful than CO2\, and an estimated $412m in fertilizer runs off into streams and rivers each year as pollution. At the same time\, raising sheep\, cattle\, chickens and hogs is responsible for 18% of all GHGs—more than the combined exhaust from all transportation. Jenny Ahlen\, EDF\, will give a high-level overview of best practices\, strategies\, programs and collaborations that companies can take advantage of in pursuit of their Project Gigaton goal.
