Companies have an obligation to adopt practices and policies that reduce their environmental and social impact. Sustainability practices allow companies to provide high-quality products without negatively impacting individuals, communities, and the environment. According to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), “Sustainability is based on a simple principle: Everything that we need for our survival and well-being depends, either directly or indirectly, on our natural environment.” LifeSpring Home Nutrition prioritizes sustainability practices in every department, from meal preparation to delivery routes.
Every company practices sustainability using different methods. Food companies can enrich communities and the environment by making more environmentally friendly decisions. According to the Department of Energy (DOE), “Reduce, reuse, and recycle are the core principles of wise resource use . . . these principals preserves and protects natural resources by reducing landfill waste, energy consumption, and pollution.” Sustainability is often about reducing the use of unnecessary materials while still providing a high-quality product for individuals in the community.
Some examples of sustainability practices utilized by LifeSpring Home Nutrition include:
The way meals are prepared and delivered impacts the environment. Sustainability practices ensure every department makes ethical decisions about disposing of or reusing certain materials. LifeSpring Home Nutrition values transparency, integrity, empathy, and sustainability. Staff members practice these values every day as they provide life-changing home-delivered meals.
Shipment policies and food by-products directly impact the environment. Home-delivered meals increase environmental sustainability by making ethical choices when planning meal packaging, food sourcing, and driver routes. According to the EPA, “Sustainable Management of Food is an approach that seeks to reduce wasted food and its associated impacts over the entire life cycle, starting with the use of natural resources, manufacturing, sales, consumption, and ending with decisions on recovery or final disposal.” LifeSpring Home Nutrition chooses eco-friendly and sustainable options whenever possible.
Responsibly sourcing ingredients means looking at the business practices and values of companies selling nutritional ingredients. Whenever possible, LifeSpring Home Nutrition purchases locally grown ingredients. The meal preparation team focuses on ensuring the final meal products have the highest level of nutrition. To ensure clients receive the best quality meals every week, ingredients are purchased from a variety of ethical sources. LifeSpring Home Nutrition considers food quality, employee treatment, and sustainability when choosing where to buy food products. The entire meal creation and planning process is positively influenced by sourcing ingredients responsibly.
Recycling is a large part of sustainability. According to the NIH Environmental Management System (NEMS), “By reducing the amount of trash produced and reusing existing materials, we can all make a difference by protecting the environment, conserving natural resources, and sustaining the planet for future generations.” LifeSpring Home Nutrition uses recyclable packaging materials to reduce waste and promote sustainability.
Each meal is stored in lightweight, easy-to-reheat containers. The weekly meal deliveries are packaged in slim, well-insulated envelopes. Ice and dry ice inside the envelopes ensure food remains at optimal temperatures throughout the delivery process without the need for bulky boxes or potentially harmful gel packs.
The environment is directly impacted by business practices in the community. Companies are responsible for limiting their environmental impact and taking steps to create sustainable products. Sustainable meal delivery services positively impact the community and environment by reducing food waste and preventing disease.
Some of the environmentally-conscious business practices at LifeSpring Home Nutrition include:
According to Cathleen Anthony, M.B.A., owner of LifeSpring Home Nutrition, “Our goal is to give quality services and meals to those who never thought they could afford a Dietitian or specialized meals. LifeSpring does everything themselves from the RD assessments with our RD’s, making the meals in our kitchen to delivering the meals with our drivers to manage quality and keep integrity of the service and product by overseeing the entire process ourselves.” By keeping all departments in-house, including meal delivery, LifeSpring Home Nutrition can adopt more effective sustainability practices.
