Environmental Sustainability

At Summerland we believe that sound business management must incorporate environmentally sustainable plans for the credit union.

That's why we're always looking to identify, research and implement actions that will reduce our impact on the natural environment.

We have an Environmental Sustainability committee to lead the efforts toward resource reduction and to encourage staff and members to adopt environmentally aware practices.

We aim to reduce our environmental impact by minimising our use of natural resources, energy and water and thereby reducing waste production and greenhouse gas emissions.

This journey toward environmental sustainability is helping to:

  • Develop our understanding of our resource use, establish benchmarks and work towards our target reductions in energy, water, waste.
  • Communicate,through a range of media, and develop a collaborative and transparent relationship with all our stakeholders about our sustainability goals.
  • Encourage commitment to our goals throughout the entire organisation including the Board, management and employees.
