One way to accomplish this is by managing the waste stream to reduce the amount of waste in the built environment. Waste flow management is one of the most profound examples of sustainable practices saving money, improving productivity and benefiting the triple bottom line for organizations around the world.\u201d<\/p> <p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Waste is defined loosely as the useless consumption or expenditure of resources. This not only encompasses the popular understanding of waste (in terms of energy and garbage), but wasted time and effort as well. Waste stream management is the process of tracking resources from the beginning to the end of their existence. Below is an excerpt from the executive summary of the guide:<\/p> <ul class=\"wp-block-list\"> This guide covers the use of resources from harvest through manufacture\/production, transportation, use and disposal of materials. It discusses environmentally preferred purchasing programs, life cycle assessment and various disposal methods. It explains rapidly renewable resources, embedded energy, virtual water, package design, the effect of materials on indoor environmental quality, recycling, document destruction and landfills. It focuses on the four \u201cRs\u201d \u2014 reduce, reuse, recycle and rethink \u2014 in managing resources and the waste products derived from them. Finally, the guide will show how managing resources throughout a product\u2019s life cycle will save time and money. <\/ul> <p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Among the subjects covered in the free guide are:<\/p> <ul class=\"wp-block-list\"> <li>Best practices for conducting a waste audit<\/li> <li>A guide for environmentally preferred purchasing<\/li> <li>Best practices to reduce, reuse, recycle and rethink<\/li> <li>Tips for making the business case for waste reduction<\/li> <li>Detailed case studies<\/li> <\/ul> <p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The peer-reviewed guide was co-written by Bill Conley, IFMA Fellow, CFM, SFP, FMP, CFMJ, LEED AP and Sharon Jaye, D.Ed., SFP.<\/p> <p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Bill Conley has more than 35 years of experience in facility management. He has managed facilities for VeriFone, Hewlett-Packard and SCAN Health Plan, and has served as managing director of the LEED\u00ae\/Sustainability Development Group for Pacific Building Care (PBC).
