Eco Endorsements: Harnessing the Power of Authentic Video Testimonials for Sustainability Programs 🌱 Transforming individuals into enthusiastic advocates for your sustainability initiatives doesn't require in-person meetings—it can all happen through a laptop. The key lies in possessing the right aptitude, skills, and perspective. Video testimonials have proven to be an incredibly potent tool for showcasing the impact of sustainability efforts, whether it's a program, product, or service. One shining example is Chris Harris, also known as Safety Dawg Inc., a respected figure in Canada's Class 8 trucking industry. His genuine testimonial has been a valuable asset in my sustainability education within the transportation sector. *** Drawing from two decades of experience in sustainability communications, I am committed to sharing these essential skills and perspectives to drive positive change. Let's continue to amplify the voices of happy customers and stakeholders, creating a more sustainable future for everybody. *** #FleetManagement #FleetMaintenance #VehicleMaintenance #FleetOperations #Sustainability #SustainableDevelopment #ClimateChange #RenewableEnergy #GreenEnergy #CircularEconomy #CorporateSocialResponsibility #CSR #ESG Virginia Clean Cities Alleyn Harned Gregory Brennan Ricks Longobart Longobart-Ross Consulting, Inc. GEOTAB International Society of Sustainability Professionals CBD Magic Canada  Sustainable Brands GreenBiz Group The Sustainability Consortium American Sustainable Business Network Corporate Responsibility Association Association of Climate Change Officers Net Impact NACTO (National Association of City Transportation Officials) Viatec Inc.
