Food for Thought Series Workshop – “The Sustainability Consortium’s role in driving sustainability through supply chains”
Dear carbon hero,
The Enviro-Mark Solutions team is delighted to invite you to a Food for Thought Series 2013 workshop with Professor Greg Thoma on Thursday 25th July (3-5pm) in Christchurch. The University of Canterbury is kindly hosting this workshop, entitled “The Sustainability Consortium’s role in driving sustainability through supply chains”.
The Sustainability Consortium (TSC) is a diverse partnership of more than 100 organisations that works on measuring and improving the sustainability of consumer goods. Its members includes Mars, Monsanto, Tesco, Unilever and Walmart. The vision of the TSC is “ to advance science to drive a new generation of innovative products and supply networks that address environmental, social, and economic imperatives.” This presentation will provide insights into how The Sustainability Consortium (TSC) is realizing its vision by creating sustainability-related knowledge on particular product categories, and use of its Sustainability Measurement and Reporting System (SMRS). A particular focus will be the role of the TSC in driving change through supply chains – and what this means for companies based in New Zealand.

We look forward to seeing you at the University of Canterbury.
Kind regards,
The Enviro-Mark Solutions team
