| 2009 Business Sustainability Survey |
The Pikes Peak Sustainable Business Network (PPSBN), a program of Catamount Institute, is dedicated to improving our region through increasing awareness and promoting sustainable business practices. The 2009 Pikes Peak Sustainable Business Survey, conducted on April 2009 through June 2009, was created to measure environmental, social, and economic impacts of businesses within Colorado Springs and the Pikes Peak Region. The intent of the survey was to measure community understanding of sustainability in the work environment and personal lifestyles, as well as provoking thought and discourse on the impact our actions has on our overall community as well communities, environments, and economies throughout the world. Catamount Institute intends to conduct future surveys as a way to measure perceptions in the community and improve awareness of sustainability issues and ideas.
