ENVIRONMENTAL POLICY

In keeping with its mission, the Millennium Institute is committed to carrying out all activities in a manner that minimizes environmental impacts, conserves natural resources and provides effective stewardship of the environment.

 

To that end, we make environmental management a core value and vital part of our institutional culture by:

 

• Integrating environmental considerations into work practices at all levels.

• Minimize international travel through extensive use of virtual lectures, workshops, and conferences.

• Offsetting CO2 emissions due to international travel through carbon sequestration initiatives.

• Extensive use of teleworking in a manner that reduces commuting to virtually zero.

• Providing resources necessary for employees and associates to conduct their work in accordance with applicable environmental regulations and Millennium Institute requirements.

• Maintaining a small office space and implementing recycling programs within our offices.

• Fostering a work environment in which employees and associates are encouraged to report and raise environmental issues without fear of retaliation.

• Striving for continual improvement in our environmental management system.

• Compliance with applicable laws, regulations, environmental and other promulgated environmental requirements.
