SUMMARY:Sustainable Foods Summit
DESCRIPTION:Taking place in San Francisco on 30-31st January\, the eighth North American edition of the Sustainable Foods Summit will showcase health impacts\, sustainable ingredients\, and eco-labels. For the first time\, the executive summit will discuss the future of health foods and eco-labelled products in a high-level forum. \nAlthough organic & eco-labelled products now comprise over 5 percent of food sales in North America\, there are concerns about the future outlook. Will the ‘mainstreaming’ of the organic food market continue? What other eco-labels are emerging? Is more label fragmentation or some degree of harmonization on the horizon? What disruption is being created by Amazon and other new entrants? \n Agenda: \nDay One: 30th January 2018 \nSustainability developments\, Food ingredients for sustainability \nDay Two: 31st January 2018 \nHealth Impacts\, Organic & Eco-labels Outlook \n  \nMore info on:     http://www.sustainablefoodssummit.com/namerica/ \nEmail:                    info@sustainablefoodssummit.com \nTel:                          (44) 20 8567 0788 \n

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:Sustainable Brands New Metrics
DESCRIPTION:A new economy is emerging that requires expanded methods for identifying\, measuring and quantifying entirely new forms of business risk and value. Courageous corporate leaders have already spurred aggressive action toward identifying and valuing these costs and impacts\, and brands leading the change have demonstrated their ability to adopt new metrics and practices that lead to demonstrably better business performance. They are successfully translating previously ignored economic\, environmental and social impacts into corporate financial performance indicators that have led to successful business results. \nThis 3-day Sustainable Brands event will showcase the macro\, corporate and investor landscapes to help your business succeed. Insightful business leaders will share detailed research on macro trends\, risks and opportunities including discussions on UN sustainable development goals and applicability for the private sector. The event will feature deep dive discussions and case studies led by remarkable thought leaders and analysts working to create smarter\, more accurate and more inclusive business metrics that create value for all stakeholders. Professionals will discover new practical tools for valuing carbon\, water and other types of natural capital\, plus gain new intelligence on the correlation between sustainability performance and brand strength. The investor landscape will be able to access new research on the ROI of both public and private sustainable investing\, discover new intelligence on green bond indices by mainstream banks and identify new players in sustainable investing across entirely new asset classes. \nLeading brands and businesses are continuing to learn from remarkable thought leaders working to create a path toward smarter\, more accurate and more inclusive business metrics that create value for all stakeholders and we certainly look forward to diving even deeper at New Metrics ’17 through 5 key tracks: \n\nStrategy & Operations\nFinance & Investor Relations\nMarketing & Communications\nHR & Employee Engagement\nSupply Chain Innovation\n\nLearn more at event’s website

SUMMARY:TSC Idea Forum Retreat
DESCRIPTION:Location provided by The Nature Conservancy \nOpen to TSC Tier 1 and Retail Members\nEver wish you just had time to think? \nAs professionals\, we are so busy getting things done that we often forget to take time to think and create.  Improving sustainability takes creative thinking\, the sharing of ideas\, and the building of partnerships. This is what TSC would like to provide for its Tier 1 and retail members\, a space to do just that – think\, create\, share\, and collaborate. To do this\, we’ve chosen a beautiful location in the heart of the Ozark Mountains to help inspire relaxation and creative thinking. The objectives of the retreat are to identify areas of opportunity where TSC can take action on sustainability hotspots; create opportunities to share best practices among TSC leaders; and to identify ways to build additional value for TSC’s Tier 1 and retail members. \nActivities\nYou are leaders in sustainability and this retreat is for you to come together to identify collaborative solutions to some of sustainability’s toughest challenges because these challenges can’t be overcome alone. You are invited to take part in this interactive\, participant driven\, refreshing experience where ideas for how to solve these challenges can become reality. During this 3-day retreat\, we will take time to think\, listen\, share\, and explore. There will be opportunities to share experiences around the fire\, network along the nature trails\, explore collaborations over coffee\, and build relationships while stargazing\, doing yoga\, or problem solving on the patio. \n\n\nLodging\n \n\nSpace is limited for this first ever TSC opportunity. Sign up today to hold your space. \nThe Kings River Deck House\, a property of The Nature Conservancy\, is located just outside of scenic Eureka Springs\, Arkansas on hundreds of acres of conservation land. The main lodge and its bungalows have 10 rooms that sleep 20 people. We invite you to take a risk and get to know your colleagues even better by being willing to share a room during your stay at the Kings River Deck House. If you are interested in sharing a room\, please indicate this by choosing the “stay at the lodge for free” option when you register. If you would prefer to book a hotel room in nearby Eureka Springs\, please indicate this by choosing the “hotel” option. \n\n\n\nHotel Recommendations: The Basin Park Hotel; Grand Central Hotel; The Crescent Hotel; Best Western Eureka Inn \n

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.

SUMMARY:Sustainable Commodities Workshop: Case Studies and Framework for Addressing Sustainability in Supplier Codes of Conduct
DESCRIPTION:Join The Sustainability Consortium for this free\, in-person workshop at FMI-GMA Global Sustainability Summit to learn about this exciting project that can help align your company’s sustainability goals with your supplier code of conduct. The project is funded by the Walton Family Foundation and is a year-long\, multi-stakeholder effort to identify opportunities in the procurement of sustainable commodities. This effort has developed a procurement framework for feed purchasers\, consumer goods companies\, and private label manufacturers to use when buying commodities. At this workshop we will continue development of the paper “Case Studies and Framework for Addressing Sustainability in Supplier Codes of Conduct” before its final release. \nContact Amanda Raster or Christy Slay for more information.
