PRESS RELEASE – Convert.com
- Convert joins an elite group of successful corporations by basing their business model on the tenets of Conscious Business practices. Following in the footsteps of Whole Foods and Google, Convert places the health of the environment, well-being of their staff and success of their clients at the core of every decision.
In a recent article published by Forbes.com, it is noted that brands that identify with conscious business practices have seen investment returns of 1025% over the past ten years, compared to only 122% for the S&P 500. 1 While investors would cheer at these numbers, the general consumer wants to know that their dollars are at the least not harming the planet and are in fact improving the planet, providing further incentive to do business. Co-Founder of the Conscious Capitalism Movement and CEO of Whole Foods, John Mackey says, “When businesses operate with higher purpose beyond profits and create value for all stakeholders, trade offs are largely eliminated, performance is elevated, and the entire system flourishes. Everyone wins.”2
While greening a product has become common in the marketplace, Conscious Business is at the core of every business decision rather than being added on later as a program to dupe consumers, thwart criticism or help manage a business’ reputation. Forefront of Convert’s Conscious Business model is becoming become a 100x carbon positive company.
Convert also gives back in a big way to their local community through HELPS International by donating to their ONIL Stove Program. The ONIL stove is donated to rural families, replacing the traditional open fire pits which reduce the risk of injury, improves ventilation, saves time to gather wood and wood consumption by 70%, in fact one stove reduces carbon released into the air at a rate of 2.893 tons of CO2e a year (equivalent to 2,500 individual flight seats from Cancun to Toronto and back).
