SUMMARY:One Company’s Journey to Plastics and Carbon Neutrality
DESCRIPTION:As the second-largest greenhouse gas emitter in the world\, the U.S. will need to cut emissions nearly in half by 2030 and reach net-zero by 2040\, a decade sooner than previously estimated\, in order to limit global warming to 1.5* Celsius. While we expect the incoming Biden-Harris administration to strengthen emissions regulations\, it’s incumbent on businesses to protect their own future by investing in becoming carbon neutral. \nWhile we reduce fossil-fuel use\, we also need to rethink consumer products based on fossil fuels. Plastics survive in the environment for years. A plastic bag can take anywhere from 10-1\,000 years to decompose\, and a plastic bottle can take 450 years. \nWhile we rightly focus attention on emissions reductions\, businesses can also contribute to a healthier ecosystem and their own resilience by reducing or eliminating single-use plastics in their products. \nWe will hear from Dan Bailey\, president of Amavida Coffee Roasters\, about his company’s journey to becoming carbon and plastics neutral. \nIf you have any questions or would like any additional information about this webinar\, please contact Martha Newell-Kinsman (mnewell-kinsman@ceres.org) or Clausell Stokes (cstokes@ceres.org). \nTo better understand the communities we serve at our events\, we invite registrants to voluntarily self-identify their gender and ethnicity. Please note that all of your answers will be kept strictly confidential and will only be used in aggregate.

SUMMARY:Growing Through Crisis - Florida Ethical Business Roundtable Work Session
DESCRIPTION:Florida ethical business roundtable work session. Your opportunity to discuss with peers how your business is coping with COVID.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFor the last several months\, we’ve all been running into the fray to provide critical goods and services for our communities. As a result\, each of us has gained hard-earned and valuable insights that can help advance our collective efforts. Now is the time to pause\, reflect\, share\, and record. \nWhat has COVID taught us? What do those lessons mean and how can we use this knowledge to our advantage to better serve our communities? Together\, we’ll share COVID insights\, challenges\, and solutions. Then together we’ll develop answers to the all-important question “What’s next?” \n— \nThis event is being led by Florida for Good\, which connects businesses that are doing good\, helping their communities and each other\, and thriving in a purpose-driven economy. \nAnd by Good Impacts\, which helps guide mission-driven businesses and ethical entrepreneurs along their impact journey.

SUMMARY:Florida Vacay 2040
DESCRIPTION:We could all use a vacation from 2020. Speculative Futures Orlando wants to whisk you away to the future as we reimagine Florida tourism.\nWhat will tourism in Florida look like in 20 years? Will the same old players dominate\, or will a new generation of entrepreneurs transform the industry? Can we create a sustainable\, equitable future for tourism in the face of climate change? Will the current pandemic fundamentally alter the way people travel?\nWe’ll be exploring these questions using art and stories created by the Practopia Project with the help of some of Orlando’s top theme park designers and artists. This workshop will be the first in a series of public events to reimagine our community’s preferred futures for tourism.\nThere is little doubt that tourism will look very different by 2040. Now is the time to lend your voice and imagination to help create that future.
