Dear Friends,

Packaging makes up over one third of all the waste in U.S. landfills. The world’s forests face immense pressure with an increasing world population. Chemicals pollute our bodies and the ecosystems that sustain us. The impact of these industries on our society and environment is immeasurable.

GreenBlue is working to reverse these trends, but we are taking a different approach than most other environmental nonprofit organizations. We are finding ways to bring business along as allies in creating an environmentally sustainable society.

We have established ourselves as a leader in sustainability thinking and a trusted partner to business.

To accelerate sustainable innovation, we are showing businesses that a sustainable world is full of new opportunities. Through our pioneering industry-sector coalitions, such as the Sustainable Packaging Coalition, and the innovative sustainability solutions we’ve developed for businesses, such as the Environmental Paper Assessment Tool, we have established ourselves as a leader in sustainability thinking and a trusted partner to business. We hope that by joining forces with business leaders, we will be able to leverage their market influence to encourage better stewardship of the environment.

Today, our organization is stronger than ever. Our staff and Board have grown to include leading scientists, designers, business strategists, and sustainability thinkers. Our programs are more effective than ever, and we continue to explore new ways to influence the dialogue around sustainability. We’ve streamlined our business operations to ensure that the majority of resources are devoted to our programmatic work.

But to continue this growth, we need your help. We are always honored to collaborate with individuals and organizations that share our same dedication to a more sustainable world. Invest in GreenBlue by donating today, and let’s build that future together.

Best wishes,

Lance Hosey
President & CEO
