The Good Stuff
In this section we ask about all the GOOD that your business or organization is doing for our community, local economy, and the environment. We collect this information to showcase the great things you're doing and also because we are actively working to create pathways for businesses to increase their environmentally and socially sustainable practices and make these goals more attainable and cost effective. Note: You will be asked to list any third-party certifications or memberships you might have later in this application form, so there is no need to list them in this section.

Circular Economy*
A circular economy aims to redefine the way we live, work, and do business. It changes our extractive “take, use, and throw away” model, to a more environmentally and socially regenerative one. While there are a number of business practices that are relevant to a circular economy, we aim to highlight businesses that go beyond the everyday practices of recycling, composting, and donating of excess goods. Businesses who participate in the circular economy at 'the next level', either materialistically, socially, or economically, employ the following practices, which include, but are not limited to: predominant use of upcycled/recycled materials, prioritize a zero-waste action plan, actively work to support a circular economy by providing fair-wage jobs and pipelines to permanent careers for folks from underrepresented communities, source over 60% of their energy from renewable sources. In approving your application, we will also look for you to display circular economy practices in your mission, values, or website. Does your company or organization prioritize and actively take part in the circular economy?
