Electronic Recyclers International has announced that it has joined the American Sustainable Business Council as a supporting business.

Through education and advocacy, the ASBC works to influence the creation of public policy that acknowledges the large and growing universe of sustainable and socially responsible businesses and social enterprises. The mission of American Sustainable Business Council is to advance public policies that ensure a vibrant, just, and sustainable economy.

“It´s an honor and privilege to be able to support and work with the esteemed American Sustainable Business Council,” said ERI Chairman and CEO John Shegerian. “Sustainability is a crucially important element of our DNA at ERI and something we have long championed in our own industry as well as others. The ASBC is a significant flag bearer for sustainability legislation — which directly impacts our environment and business practices in a positive way. It will be extremely rewarding to have the opportunity to share our perspectives and real time experience with this productive, proactive and influential group. We´re excited to be able to help them make a tangible difference.”
