The October 2016 Inside Supply Management front cover article, Full Circle: Supply management can play a key role in the circular economy, working with suppliers to eliminate waste and drive financial value, features quotes by Ei Founder Holly Elmore on the importance of WE Consciousness (teamwork!), corporate culture and ROI in circular economy-focused business practices. Holly’s quote, “Sustainability is a long-term commitment that requires, at times, short-term investments or temporary financial shortcomings. But in the long run, if it is done with integrity and committed planning with the right resources plugged in, the ROI will be there.” ends the article.

The ZWA Blog article, Zero waste moves from “best” to standard operating practices, gives an overview of the excellent article along with the commentary on the zero waste industry evolution.
