CSY Impact Consulting is a sustainability advisory firm helping companies navigate Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) and build circular, lower-impact business models. Our environmental commitments apply to our own operations as a small consultancy in Colorado, and reflect the same principles we advise our clients to adopt.

Our commitments:

1. Measure our footprint. We maintain an annual greenhouse gas (GHG) inventory covering our material emissions sources, including business travel (air, rideshare, and personal vehicle use), and use it to identify reduction opportunities year over year.

2. Minimize travel emissions. We operate as a fully remote business and prioritize virtual meetings and engagements. When travel is necessary, we consolidate trips and favor lower-emission options where practical.

3. Reduce resource consumption. We operate paper-light, delivering work digitally, and choose energy-efficient equipment and responsible purchasing for the supplies our business requires.

4. Manage waste responsibly. We reduce, reuse, and recycle in our home office and properly handle electronic waste at end of life.

5. Practice what we advise. We apply circular-economy and EPR principles to our own purchasing and operations, choosing products and vendors with credible environmental commitments where feasible.

6. Improve continuously. We review this policy at least annually, set practical goals, and adjust as the business grows. As we scale, we will extend these commitments to any team members, subcontractors, and vendors we engage.

1. Commitment

CSY Impact Consulting is a mission-driven firm committed to treating people fairly and with respect. The firm does not discriminate, and will not discriminate, on the basis of race, color, religion or creed, national origin or ancestry, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression, pregnancy, age, disability, military or veteran status, marital status, genetic information, or any other characteristic protected by applicable federal, Colorado, or local law.

2. Scope

This commitment applies to how the firm conducts all of its relationships, including with clients, subcontractors, vendors, and partners. As the firm hires employees, it will apply to all aspects of employment, including recruitment, hiring, compensation, assignment, training, advancement, discipline, and termination.

3. Respectful Workplace

The firm is committed to a working environment free from harassment and retaliation. As the firm grows, it will maintain procedures for raising and addressing concerns, and it will not tolerate retaliation against anyone who raises a good-faith concern.

4. Equal Opportunity in Practice

Decisions about engagements, subcontracting, and (in the future) employment are based on qualifications, merit, and business needs. The firm seeks out diverse perspectives as a matter of both principle and business strength.

5. Review

This policy is reviewed annually. Before the firm's first hire, it will be expanded into the firm's employment practices with any procedures and legal notices required under Colorado and federal law.
