BETHESDA, MD. - January 9, 2009 - As more and more companies recognize the benefits and necessity of 'going green', many are asking, "Where do we begin?" To answer this critical question, sustainability consultants Anca Novacovici and Jennifer Woofter have put their experience and expertise to work in their new book Sustainability 101: A Toolkit for Business. At just under 200 pages in length, this succinct introductory manual is designed to help organizations, whether committed to going green or just getting started, become more socially and environmentally responsible.

"This book is intended to simplify the process," said Anca Novacovici, founder of Eco-Coach, Inc., "and help a company, or a Green Team within a company, get started on the path to sustainability. 'Going green' does not have to be complicated and costly. Outlined in the book are some relatively straight-forward and cost-effective steps that companies can take to get started right away."

Inside, organizations will find simple, easy-to-follow steps for greening any business, including "how-to":

  • Get senior-level management on board

  • Create a detailed sustainability plan

  • Implement a sustainability plan

  • Most importantly, get started!
"We've used this material with dozens of clients, and find that this "101" level of recommendation is just right for organizations who are ready to tackle a green commitment and need help in taking those first steps," said Jennifer Woofter, president of Strategic Sustainability Consulting. "With this book as a reference, companies of every size can feel confident that "going green" is within their reach."
