In this third annual program collaboration between Chautauqua Institution and the Western New York Sustainable Business Roundtable (SBR), we focus on how prioritizing materials reuse over waste advances the so-called triple bottom line: helping businesses, communities, and the planet thrive. The forum takes place during Chautauqua’s weeklong exploration of the theme “Wasted: Our Era of Disposability.” 

This is a members only event. Please login to your SBR member account to access the registration. If you do not have an account but work for a member organization, create an account.
