ASSOCIATE:
Shanna Bierman “My vision is a world of optimal health, a sustainable
environment and a safe and natural life for all the occupants of mother earth.
Through the process of education and coaching, my mission is to empower others
to achieve their own health and wellness goals while continuing to be responsible
stewards of the earth and her resources”. Through my desire to
lessen my impact on the earth and to become sustainable, I have learned how to
help others implement sustainability programs within their homes and businesses.
In 2002, I designed and implemented the recycling and composting program for Whole
Foods Market. While there I ran a community education program to teach the customers
of the store about the benefits of the program as well as how they could start
recycling and composting programs in their own homes. I also upgraded store lighting
to more environmentally friendly sources and implemented packaging for all to-go
containers that can be recycled or composted. Having worked to educate the employees
and the customers on the ease of this program, Whole Foods Market has been able
to take the idea of sustainability to even further levels. To this day I can still
walk in my local store and have employees point out their efforts to further this
project.
