Nicklaus Design Joins Audubon Lifestyles and the ISC as a Platinum Member

Nov. 13, 2012 - PRLog -- Nicklaus Design recently joined Audubon Lifestyles and the International Sustainability Council (ISC-Audubon) as a Platinum Member.  Nicklaus Design is headquartered in Palm Beach, Florida but has multiple locations around the world including Hong Kong and Beijing, China, Belgium, Mexico, South Africa, and Korea.  

By joining as a Platinum Member, Nicklaus Design has joined the growing network of businesses, municipalities, non-profits and others who are actively showing their support of Audubon Lifestyles and The International Sustainability (ISC-Audubon).  ISC-Audubon Platinum Membership was created to help foster sustainability by working with, and providing educational resources to individuals, businesses, organizations, universities, government entities, municipalities, communities, neighborhoods, and virtually anyone seeking assistance to balance the triple bottom line of people, profit, and planet where they live, work, and play.

Funds generated through memberships and donations are used by ISC-Audubon to provide fruit & vegetable seeds, wildflower seed mix, and wildlife feed & birdseed to urban and suburban communities around the world.

These seeds are used by communities to establish fruit and vegetable gardens, bird and wildlife sanctuaries, and for the beautification of urban and suburban landscapes by creating flower and native plant gardens.

Nicklaus Design’s support and membership allows ISC-Audubon to expand their efforts to promote sustainability worldwide, and to Spread the Seeds of Sustainability.

R. Eric Dodson, Executive Director for ISC-Audubon said, “We are very excited to welcome Nicklaus Design into the ISC-Audubon family. Nicklaus Design has shown that they are willing to become a global leader and advocate of sustainable causes by becoming a Platinum Member, and are leading by example. Their commitment and efforts in promoting sustainability on a global scale are to be commended.”

Leading businesses like Nicklaus Design are finding innovative ways to improve their environmental and social performance. And their actions not only contribute to a cleaner, healthier and safer planet, but they also result in significant business and financial benefits. Sustainability is not an asset that can be bought or sold; however it is becoming an integral part of the way that businesses are being managed and operated.  

ISC-Audubon Platinum Membership provides businesses like Nicklaus Design with a vast pool of resources to assist them with all of their sustainability efforts, and also allows for participation in Sustainability Certification Programs.

In addition, Nicklaus Design has earned the right to use the ISC-Audubon Platinum Member Logo on their educational materials, and will be listed on the ISC-Audubon Network for Sustainability as a Platinum Member.
