Meeting Goals at the Local Level


Sustain SC is working to standardize the approach to measuring sustainability.

Approximately 80% of industries in South Carolina are actively assessing and tracking their sustainability efforts.

Sustain SC is collaborating with both industry and conservation partners to establish standardized metrics and approaches for measuring sustainability that reflect the unique needs, goals, and natural resources of our state.

We want to attract new sustainable industries and retain South Carolina’s high school and college graduates who, as studies show, prefer to work for companies engaged in planning and implementing sustainable solutions.

 

Sustain SC Sr. VP Cynthia Davis joined SC Rep. Mark Willis and the SC Department of Commerce Recycling Market Development Advisory Council for a tour of United Catalyst Corporation in Fountain Inn.
