Graphic Design & Photography Work

We are pleased to see some of our graphic design and photography work, for client SustaiNext|EU, featured in the Sustainable Brands weekly communications bulletin.

Not only is this great news for a great event (being held in Dublin this October--for free!) but it also makes us here at 2 Miles Consulting smile to see our work amongst some of the best and brightest sustainable branding peeps out there!

Fun fact: 

The chairs you see in the background on the banner and on the site are the real ones from the auditorium where SustaiNext|EU will be taking place, the Helix Center!

We want to know what you think about the ever elusive topic of "Sustainability".

Sure, people know what it means by now but there is always that pesky problem of incorporating the *stuff that this paradigm tells you to do. Why does it seem like the adoption curve (or The Diffusion of Innovations) on this one is so slow to kick of? Here are some answers we've come up with:

• Qualitative ROI metrics are still too elusive
• Not enough reliable communication & education resources
• Too much information/No cohesive resource
• People are afraid of change
• Tools for incorporation are not easily and/or readily available to the public consumer

To voice your opinion or comment, please visit our Facebook survey on the subject. We'll post the results on Earth Day and see what we can do to fix the problem.

*Stuff refers to things like re/upcycling, composting, buying more energy efficient products, choosing renewable sources, ensuring unused lights are turned off, making healthier choices, etc. You know, doing the right thing.

2 Miles Returns

Greetings!

After a year-long hiatus, we are happy to announce that we are reviving 2 Miles!

What is 2 Miles?

It is focused on helping organizations develop their sustainability efforts. We use an approach that integrates all aspects of the Triple Bottom Line (TBL). We also believe that no matter what stage of implementing Corporate Responsibility Strategy (CSR) your business finds itself in, a healthy dose of integrated planning and benchmarking is necessary to achieving your goals. We've found a great tool called, S-CORE™ (developed by our friends at Axis Performance Advisors), that provides a standardized way to assess your current efforts, outlines a plan for the future, and compares your progress to other organizations.
