Open Sustainability

Open-Sustainability aims to "harnesses collective intelligence by providing an open approach to which anyone can contribute" via the Open-Sustainability.Org wiki. To this end they have created a Sustainability Governance Framework that can be freely used and collaboratively developed or customised for your specific organisation. They also aim to use the same kind of crowd sourcing techniques as wikipedia to create a listing of sustainable enterprises, or enterprises with sustainability initiatives. They ask a number of questions about each such organisation including an assessment of what stage they are at in this sustainability roadmap:

1. Viewing Compliance as Opportunity
2. Making Value Chains Sustainable
3. Designing Sustainable Products and Services
4. Developing New Business Models
5. Creating Next Practice Platforms

Everyone is invited to join the wiki and fill in a sustainability profile form for their firm or any other firm they are aware of with sustainability initiatives or behaviours. You can go here and profile a sustainable enterprise now. There is even space for contact details so that collaboration between different organisations at different stages in the sustainability roadmap could collaborate and learn from each other.
