Big Footprints: How Associations Are Becoming More Sustainable

Engaging in the Next podcast logo

In the latest episode of the “Engaging in the Next” podcast, I had the opportunity to chat with Colby Horton and Frank Humada about why it’s crucial for associations to take action on climate change and sustainability.

Our conversation addressed  the importance of measuring and actively reducing carbon footprints, urging associations to move beyond relying on carbon offsets. We discussed examples of innovative practices within the association space and encouraged organizations to set small, attainable goals while leveraging their collective power to advocate for impactful environmental policy changes.

(We also got into being a foodie, heated sports rivalries – GO BIRDS! – and jazz.)

Also, the Association Climate Action Coalition has a free online community (thanks to the generous support of the team at Breezio) where association execs can gather to share resources and good practices, ask questions, and get advice for developing resilience and learning how to adapt to climate change at https://ac3.breezio.com/.
