Over the next few months, 250 people working in the Canadian Governments Office of the Auditor will receive training in The Natural Step (TNS) to raise awareness of sustainable development. “Our objectives are to stimulate auditors to think about their work in the context of the 4.5 billion years of evolution of planet Earth, and, hopefully, to encourage them to think systemically about sustainable development with the help of the four system conditions of The Natural Step, says Ron Bergin, a Board member of TNS Canada and a Director on the Commissioner of Environment and Sustainable Developments staff.
Collins Pine, a certified wood products company, and Norm Thompson Outfitters have
trained 600 and 200 employees respectively. In September, Nike launched its
environmental policy at a rally for 2,000 employees, where they announced the integration of TNS into their employee education programs. As a result of TNS, Nike announced its intention to eliminate PVC from its products. Bornt Family Farms, one of the oldest and largest organic farming operations in the U.S., trained its entire management team. Interface is in the process of training every staff member through One World Learning, its coaching and consulting company.
