Sustainable development in government operations : a coordinated approach.En4-592/2000E-PDF

"This paper proposes a coordinated approach to sustainability of federal operations. It is founded on the major, on-going commitments of A Guide to Green Government and recommends best practices in seven priority areas of operations. It proposes a toolbox of collaboratively developed performance measures and offers a sample set of concrete targets. Use of common performance measures enables measurability. Emulation of sample targets allows reportability across departments. A joint effort on shared issues provides economies of scale. The fundamental principle of this approach is that sustainability of operations is a journey of continuous improvement; the federal family can make greater progress by walking the road together"--page 1.
