Sustainability Series
Launched in 2022, the Sustainability Series began as a series encompassing audience Q&A from the Sustainability Panel Session held during the 2022 annual meeting. It has evolved to include industry updates on sustainability as well as updates on NLGI’s sustainability committee/sub-groups including:
1. Three task forces were created, including:
• Identifying and measuring footprint, handprint, and life-cycle analysis
• Getting regular updates from experts in the field of sustainability
• Environmental, Health, and Safety implications in the grease industry
2. Working with API on Lubricants Life Cycle Assessment and Carbon Footprinting- Methodology and Best Practice
3. Working with other industry organizations on universal, global initiatives
As NLGI continues to explore resources to help members with their sustainability efforts, please enjoy the ongoing “Sustainability Series” below:
