Working Groups
ASBN-BizNGO Safer Chemicals Public Policy Working Group
This working group will focus on public policy initiatives at the state and federal level. The ASBN-BizNGO Safer Chemicals Public Policy Work Group features in-depth analyses by policy experts, monitors federal and state chemical policy initiatives, and engages in and comments on initiatives where we have expertise.
Circular Economy Working Group
The Circular Economy Working Group brings together a wide variety of key stakeholders as ASBN works to tackle the waste crisis, especially plastic waste, in the United States. Environmentally-focused organizations and business leaders from across the nation collaborate to help guide our Packaging Waste Reduction campaign, with a focus on both federal and state level policies.
Climate & Energy Working Group
The objective of ASBN’s Climate & Energy working group is to discuss and identify key problems, solutions and strategies to address the climate and energy crisis our planet is facing. Global temperature has been on the rise, with the first decade of the 21st century the warmest on record. Overwhelmingly, scientists agree that man-made climate change is occurring. Climate events are indisputably more frequent, more severe and more destructive.
Regenerative Agriculture & Justice Working Group
American Sustainable Business Network has convened the Regenerative Agriculture and Justice working group to advance public policies for a more regenerative, just, and equitable food and agricultural system. This broad group of stakeholders brings together business leaders from industries throughout the agricultural value chain, advocacy organizations, and groups representing farmers, workers, and frontline communities.
Race and Equity Working Group
ASBN’s Race and Equity Working Group was created to address the inequities prevalent and pervasive in the economic and social construct of the United States and to hold our legislators accountable to social and economic justice. We ensure that the dignity and respect of diverse perspectives, voices and values of a multicultural America are heard and reflected in ASBN’s policy work toward creating an equitable and compassionate economy for all.
The Livable Planet Working Group
The Livable Planet Working Group is dedicated to identifying systems and solutions that enable all life to thrive. We will work together to enhance these living-systems, tending to personal, team, community and global wellbeing.
