greenerPathway Benefits

greenerPathway is designed to achieve real benefits. Creating a sustainability program opens the doors to a wide variety of opportunities for your organization.

Benefits can include saving money through energy conservation, taking advantage of new sustainability-related funding streams and green job growth.

Specific benefits can include:

• Saving $2.49 - $3.31 a square foot per year NPV over 20 years by retrofitting buildings;
• Quickly and sucessfully creating a sustainability strategy without adding staff;
• Creating green jobs faster;
• Building new green business opportunities;
• Demonstrating carbon has been reduced (fuel reliance has been lowered) by reporting results; and
• Satisfying stakeholder demands by communicating how commitments have been met successfully.

greenerPathway has been developed to achieve commitments such as ICLEI, the US Conference of Mayors' Climate Protection Agreement, and the AASHE President's Climate Commitment. As a result, greenerPathway works in concert with guidance from other sources, such as the excellent Climate Protection Manual For Cities published by Natural Capitalism Solutions.
