a network of people collaborating to create sustainable community

Chamber of Commerce Sustainability Committee

The Petaluma Chamber of Commerce has formed a sustainability committee dedicated to education and information sharing about ecological practices within the business community.

First Steps
As an initial step, the committee created a survey for the business community in order to determine areas of focus and interest.With this input from Petaluma companies, Chamber sponsored eductional programs were planned to help Petaluma businesses become more sustainable in an ecological sense. For more information, contact the Petaluma Area Chamber of Commerce.

Over fifty representatives from area businesses gathered June 20, 2002 at the Petaluma Yacht Club for a Petaluma Chamber of Commerce sponsored workshop, “Sustainability at Work” with Ed Quevedo, to learn how to make business more ecologically friendly. The event was cosponsored by the North Bay Technology Roundtable.

More new programs have now begun involving sustainbility in business as a result of the first workshop. For more info about how your business can be a part of these programs, contact Ned Orrett: ned@resourceperform.com
