Best Practices in Corporate
Stewardship
The Core Ideas of Corporate Stewardship
 Corporate stewardship:
 Effective use of resources
 Explicit consideration of the environmental impact of a
company’s products, services, and activities
 Interest in stewardship is driven by:
 Environmental costs are a large and growing corporate expense
 Executives view environmental and social responsibility
in a more strategic way
 Sustainable development is:
 In the interest of all constituents
 Necessary for both business and the environment to thrive
Background

1969 –
National Environmental
Policy Act
Brundtland Report (UN)
balance environmental protection
with economic development
1970 –
EPA formed

environmentally friendly practices
1976 –
Resource Conservation
and Recovery Act (hazardous
waste focus)
1990 –
1980 –
Superfund Established
(cleanup infrastructure
and penalties for violations)
GEMI founded (Global
Environmental Management
Initiative) – framework for
environmental excellence
1992 –
Rio de Janeiro Earth Summit –
100 nations pledge to implement
sustainable development
practices
1995 –

environmental management
systems (EMS)
Background
Encouraging Views About Corporate Stewardship
 “There are a number of things every company can do at little or no
cost to improve its environmental performance”
– Frank Alix, CEO of Powerspan Corp.
 “By implementing an energy management program, reducing
unnecessary uses and costs, and installing energy savings
methods, a company can save 15 to 30 percent of energy costs.”
– Quentin Kelly, CEO of World Water Corp.
 “Making the decision to be more environmentally friendly excites
your employees and the people around you. It shows you are the
kind of company that can think about things on a bigger scale.”
– Darren Hammell, CEO of Princeton Power Systems
 “Because we are environmentally committed, people who have
ideas come and seek us out.”
– Steve Demos, President of WhiteWave Inc.

Background
Best Practices in Corporate Stewardship
The goals of this project are to:
 Develop a perspective on current best practices through
the analysis of recent public reports from 25 leading
companies in the Northeastern U.S.
 Benchmark activities and views of local companies
through a survey of 71 Massachusetts-based companies
 Facilitate a discussion of opportunities and issues

Energy Efficiency
By increasing efficiency over the past 10 years we’ve:
–
Achieved 33% reduction in energy use and CO2 emissions per lb. of
product
–
Saved over $1.7 million dollars and 46 million kilowatt hours of energy
–
Efficiency gains have come from:
• incorporating heat recovery
Facility Energy Use Per Pound of Yogurt Produced
• installing energy efficient equipment

Supply Chain: Packaging

•
•
16% less energy used
13% less water used
6% less solid waste created
$1 MM saved annually
Form, fill and seal
• Reduced packaging by more than one third!
• Efficiency and productivity gains
• $1.8 MM saved annually
Annual savings of 730 tons or
36 truckloads of materials
Supply Chain: Organic
• 40% of energy used on conventional farms goes into
making chemical fertilizers and pesticides
– Those chemicals not permitted in organic farming
• Organic-rich soils trap carbon, keeping it out of
atmosphere
• Stonyfield Farm ingredient purchases support over
40,000 acres of organic farmland
Education and Advocacy
• Lids, Website, Advertising, PR
• Environmental messages on over 150
million lids
Challenges….
• Cows
• Trucks/Distribution
• Goal Setting: How do we account for growth?
– Ultimately it’s absolute emissions that matter to the
earth - not normalized per unit of output

Central Chemical Management Program
– 10+ years in Andover
– Now an enterprise-wide program – Tucson, Dallas, El
Segundo, New England, Wichita, Largo
– Leveraged commodity buy provides price advantage
– Just-in-time chemical delivery, and web-based chemical
ordering catalog
– Reduction of labpack chemicals due to shelf-life expiration
Page 69
Uniquely Incentivized Agreements
• Incentivized to minimize chemical use
– Identify less hazardous chemical substitutes
– Reduce chemical usage
• Cost sharing agreement between Raytheon and central
chemical management supplier
– Process Efficiency Improvements - PEI
Page 70
Advantages of Central Chemical Management
• On-line MSDS’s - 24/7
• “Free” environmental report data
