The monthly meetings offer opportunities for members to share their best practices, successes and concerns in a less formal setting. For new or prospective members, the meetings offer a chance to connect with others who are working on the same issues and to learn more about SSV.
SSV depends on the energy and talents of our volunteers. Your help will be appreciated! Please contact us and let us know how you can help or attend one of the forums or monthly meetings to become acquainted with our efforts.
SSV offers quarterly Educational Forums to inspire new participants and to support members with relevant and current practices and ideas. Presenters are SSV partners or outside experts who share their knowledge on which processes, investments and practices yield the greatest success.
An organization can make a customized and voluntary pledge to reduce CO2. Pledging helps an organization to set measurable goals and provides an incentive to keep your organization moving to achieve its goals. Please let us know if we can help you with this important step.
Annual reporting of your progress is easy with SSV's tools. “What gets measured, gets managed. What gets managed, gets done.” The reporting process is detailed in the CO2 Reporting Protocol, and you can view the CO2 Reporting Tool.
