Sustainability
At SRT we believe that environmentally sustainable practices are a continuous process rather than a time-bound project. By integrating environmentally conscious policies into our organization we strive to lessen our impact on the environment. To further our commitment towards sustainable practices we’ve taken the steps to be certified as a San Francisco Green Business and implemented policies that earned us recognition by the EPA as a Clean Energy Partner by offsetting our carbon emissions by 100%. For our continued efforts towards a greener planet, the California Air Resources Board recognized SRT with a 2015 Business of the Year Award.
As a firm that works directly with environmental resource management, we’ve learned through practice the benefits of the triple bottom line of sustainability. Sustainability delivers value for our clients, for us, and for the communities where we work. It is not an added cost, but can translate to resounding value for people, for the planet, and for profit. Our approach to sustainability is to use our ingenuity to deliver lasting value for all. We have the knowledge to do it – and we believe we have the responsibility to do it. It’s that simple.
