Over the years, Dogwood’s campaigns have been very successful at putting pressure on corporations and getting previously unthinkable results. But we knew that even with partners like NRDC and the support of over 70 organizations, we were going to need partners in Europe to take on European utility companies like DRAX and their US suppliers like Enviva.
Because Dogwood Alliance is solution-oriented and envisions a clean energy future using the power of wind, solar and conservation and efficiency, we have partnered with Geostellar, America’s first and largest online solar marketplace.
Amazing Capes has chosen Dogwood Alliance as the beneficiary of their “Intrepid Adventurer cape: The Carson because of Dogwood’s ground-breaking advances towards creating a safer, healthier and more sustainable world and because Roxanne and Amazing Capes want to thank and support real-life superheroes who improve the quality of life for all who share this amazing planet.
Recently I went to Chicago, Illinois for training on the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) which has become the most used sustainability reporting framework for companies to measure and report their sustainability performance. We share the non-profit GRI’s belief that this kind of reporting done transparently and with accountability can drive progress in corporate sustainability.
Dogwood Alliance is the first organization that I worked with outside campus here in United States. As an international student at Duke University, I kept trying to gain an opportunity to work in the industry before I applied for the Stanback Internship program.
