We are the Case Crew and our members are Bryan Vanho, Abby Schaeffer, Donovan Remp, and Chloe Costello. For our EACAP (Environmental Awareness & Community Action Project), we researched industrial waste and identified it’s causes, consequences and solutions. See our industrial waste brochure for that information. The industrial waste definition and sustainable development goals are also included on the brochure. For our service component, we worked with Scot Case to research ESG (Environmental, Social, & Governance) reports to learn more about sustainability in businesses that we shop. Bryan researched Walmart and Target, Abby researched AT&T and Verizon, Donovan researched Cabela’s and REI, and Chloe researched Coca Cola and PepsiCo. We also created a brochure for Mr. Case to provide him with the information we found on each of these companies. Overall, we found that this project was very eye-opening. We personally were unaware of the many factors that go into disposing of industrial waste as well as the different types of waste. We think that the time spent on this project was extremely beneficial to how we will view this topic from now on. As for the community service component, a lot was learned in this component too. We had never heard of ESG reports prior to this project, and had no idea of the importance of them. Spending time on this project was also seen as a big takeaway and it will change how we will view these companies in the future.
