During the RV Industry Association’s Leadership Conference this month, Sustainability Committee Chair, Sandy Rynalski of THOR Industries, and Committee member, Kartik Mekala of Lippert, gave a presentation on how companies can start their sustainability journeys.

The presentation provided five specific steps companies can take:

  1. Assess your organization’s impacts.
  2. Understand where you are and set targets.
  3. Distribute responsibility, accountability, and budget.
  4. Incorporate sustainability into your company’s decision-making process.
  5. Measure and track your progress.

The presentation also provided over ten examples of actions your company can take to start or expand sustainability efforts.
