The vision of TheGreenOffice.com is simple: an office product industry where human and ecological health are the sole byproducts of operation. To this end we help consumers align values with action by providing a full selection of sustainable office products at great prices. Through green purchasing and sustainable practice, our customers send a clear signal to market that real demand exists for positive change. In turn, this signal triggers the innovation of greener products, narrows the price gap between green and conventional products, and furthers adoption by mainstream consumers.
Our company is dedicated to modeling the best-practices of sustainable business. In every sphere of operation our decisions are made to maximize the social, ecological, and financial performance of our company - what is known as the triple-bottom-line. Though most easily identified by our environmental goals, we are equally concerned with issues of democracy and social justice. From the communities we impact to the people manufacturing our products, we work to include all stakeholders in a decision making process that values equity, health, and safety.
TheGreenOffice.com partners with nonprofit, business, and government leaders working to build a vibrant green economy. If you or your organization is interested in working with us towards sustainability in the workplace, please drop a line.

Redefining Progress |
 |
Redefining Progress (RP) works with a broad array of partners to shift the economy and public policy towards sustainability. RP does this in three ways:
- RP measures the real state of our economy, our environment, and social justice with tools like the Genuine Progress Indicator and the Ecological Footprint.
- We design policies - like environmental tax reform - to shift behavior in these three domains (economy, environment, and equity) towards sustainability.
- We promote and create new frameworks - like common assets - to replace the ones that are taking us away from long-term social, economic, and environmental health.
Our tools include rigorous indices of sustainability, groundbreaking economic policies, and solid new frameworks for re-shaping our world. Our partners include grassroots communities, labor unions, policymakers, academics, and businesses. Our efforts are largely focused on the United States because redefining progress here will have enormous global reverberations. Contact us for more information. |
