ned specifically for direct business-to-business sharing of sustainability experiences. The Wisconsin Sustainable Business Council Conference, as with many other states that have also developed "sustainable business networks" or "sustainable business councils," seeks to create a support group for businesses interested in implementing more sustainable business practices. Each session delivers take-away lessons and pragmatic tools. Our goal is to establish Wisconsin not only as a destination for "sustainable businesses", but as a home for businesses from all sectors with an interest in sustainability.
Sustainable businesses take full account of the environmental and social consequences of economic activity and use resources that are renewable, replaceable, non-depletionary or regenerative. By so doing, these businesses reduce waste, improve efficiencies, and increase employee productivity, all of which decrease operating costs and increase margins.
