Committed Colleagues
Each month, we publish our Sustainability Snapshot poster in all our offices, which includes market stories,
noteworthy news, fast facts, and a committed colleague bio. These individuals exemplify our sustainability
goals at work and at home and serve as a vital component to our sustainability program. Just a few of our
committed colleagues are highlighted below:

Over time, I have realized there is a much bigger circle to sustainability than
“Reduce, Reuse, Recycle.” You should seek to build an approach that is as holistic
as possible, whether personally, at home or in your community. Look around. It’s
great to start with replacing your plastic straws, utensils, and bags with reusable ones
but what else in your everyday life could be greener? There are many other ways to
work towards a more sustainable future.

The Sustainability Coordinator Network has been a great platform to share best
practices across multiple offices. Each person who gets involved has brought
something valuable to the table. Speaking with coordinators in the Network has
helped us brainstorm methods to address sustainability barriers in offices and
spearhead initiatives such as annual Earth Day park clean-ups, quarterly sustainable
potlucks, and replacing plastic stir sticks with wooden ones.
Kevin Surbella
Solving Earth’s pollution issues and reducing our carbon footprint may seem like a
daunting task; however, I’ve always believed that taking small steps can lead to big
results. Whether you decide not to print, remember to turn off your monitor at the
end of the day or use reusable containers, all these actions add up over time. As
the Earth Day Challenge has shown, getting others involved in making daily Earth
friendly choices will help us reach our corporate sustainability goals and benefit our
workspace and the environment!
Gaby Porras
I work in Civil Engineering Services, with a degree in sustainability and am trying to
spread this passion into every sector. Beyond my work life, I live by the same values
- this even means that I walk to work as I do not own a car! I am excited to work for
and contribute to a company that has made a commitment to sustainability.
