Eco-Consultant: The Credible Credential |
|
The sure cure for Green washing is very evident. We have all heard the phrase that "You cannot prove what has not been measured." The proof of the first down in football is when they "bring out the chain" to measure whether the team has advanced the ball the required ten yards. How often have we seen a player jump up declaring a first down, but find out when the referees (auditors) measure the distance that the team has come up short? |

Establishing Standards for the eco-consultant Credential |
|
Audits require a set of standards. Those standards can be very low or require a company to perform at a higher level of compliance. B Lab, for example merely requires a company to " rewrite its corporate governing documents to reflect its social and environmental mission and pay an annual fee of $500." Will Green certification quickly become a race to the bottom to see what firm will offer the easiest qualification requirements? |
