As our climate heats, causing more regular severe weather events and permanent changes to our environment, more businesses are realising we need to change our everyday operational practices to make them more environmentally sustainable.
This event heard three highly experienced and environmentally–conscious speakers discuss ways our businesses can have less environmental impact and how to market your ‘greenness’ and use it to build relationships with stakeholders.
Fiona Flynn, an Implementation Advisor at Resource Efficient Scotland, explained why and how SMEs can make their business environmentally sustainable and its benefits.
Reseda Muir, Co-founder and Director of St Andrews-based Muir Walker Pride Chartered Architects and Interior Designers (MWP), explained how MWP made its business more environmentally sustainable.
University of St Andrews Sustainability Manager David Stutchfield talked about its work on sustainability policies, carbon management plans, sustainable resources plans and utilities and waste, how businesses can do the same and market their new ‘green’ credentials.
