The New Life of Rubber Tires: How a Company's Business Move Can Help Reduce Rubber's Impact Michael R. Barr, Alicia M. Case & Duy L. Nguyen January 2013 M.Sc. in Sustainability Management | SUS 603 - Sustainable Innovation National University Rubber tires account for a larger source of waste in landfills and scrapyards in the United States. Technology has developed to turn rubber tires into “crumb” rubber to be used in other industries, including in asphalt for road creation. Before the 1960s, scrap tires were not as much of an issue. Tires were made of a combination of materials including natural rubber that had the ability to be reclaimed. When the industry began making tires out of synthetic rubber the waste stream increased. Liberty Tire Recycling is a company that was formed to take advantage of the large rubber waste stream and turn it into a useful, profitable product. Formed by CEO Jeffrey Kendall with two partners in 2000, Liberty Tire Recycling dominates the reclaimed rubber market. Mr. Kendall’s goal is to continue to grow the company even through tough economic times by adapting and increasing the number of uses for the scrap and crumb rubber the company breaks down. One of these uses is in asphalt paving which makes for quieter, more sustainable roads. Liberty Tire Recycling is taking an active role in educating governments and municipalities on the use of crumb rubber in an attempt to grow their business.]]>

Fostering Innovation in Postal Service Environmentally Preferable Shipping Supplies Sustainability Metrics Project Michael R. Barr, Alicia M.

Shipping supplies that are not considered environmentally preferable are candidates for improvement. Improvements will consist of integration of sustainable aspects such as economic and social value, efficient use of energy and materials, recycled content, compostability or biodegradability, and non-toxicity into identified shipping packaging and products. Identified packaging and product lines will be certified by a third party eco–labeling program, and measured as environmentally preferable retail products for profitability, volume, weight, and greenhouse gas measurements. It is being proposed that a product innovation team be formed for the purpose of using Six Sigma methodologies to determine importance, problems or opportunities, improvements, and sustainable gains necessary to foster gains and improvements in shipping supplies not considered environmentally preferable. ]]>

The importance of sustainability is visible in our partnerships with suppliers who share our best practices in water management, our devotion to the communities and watersheds that are affected by our carefully calculated operations, and our acknowledgement of the intricate relationship between business and ecological nourishment. In assessment of our water management strategy, we formed four key questions to help us along the road to sustainable water management: • What land use and development strategies can be utilized at our facility to reduce water system resource and energy demands? • What water efficiency and renewable energy standards, and conservation best management practices need to be identified for cost effective facility/infrastructure upgrades to the existing water system? • Can our Water Management Plan efforts promote a rate restructuring for our business to encourage water conservation while protecting revenue? • What outreach and education tools and strategies can be utilized for encouraging water conservation to our patrons and customers? ]]>
