Case Study #4: Cambodian Sustainability

Keith — Fri, 16 Apr 2010 10:00:23 +0000

We are pleased to present our 4th Sustainability Case Study today. It is a more detailed account of the three organizations (Bloom, SME-RE and RE-I) we thanked for their time here. We are also happy to showcase the Google PDF viewer we have rolled out on the site so that our readers can view Case Studies without having to download a PDF (although the resolution is better when you download).

We welcome your thoughts, opinions or additional questions about our experiences in Cambodia. Also if you know of a higher resolution PDF viewer option for WordPress please it in the comments below.

Our Second Sustainability Case Study

The second case study is now complete! While the quick service oil change industry was not the first place I thought to look for examples of sustainability efforts driving business growth, Lube Stop is a regional company that has done just that in a very challenging category.

The case study highlights my interview with the President of the company, Tom Morley and his efforts to integrate sustainability into the core of Lube Stop operations and recent new product innovation.

Our experiance with biomimicry

The lobby of the Hearst Tower in New York City

Hidden Falls, Grand Teton National Park

I think this is what the Hearst Tower was going for. Standing in front of the falls on a hot sunny day you can feel the rush of cool air come at you: nature’s air conditioning at your service as you hike up the Tetons.

Do you know of any bio-mimicry examples? It does not have to be a building, it could be a product or even a service, be sure to share them below in comments. And please don’t foget to sign up for the RSS feed to keep up with the latest updates here.
