Does your company have a Sustainable Supply Chain Management (SSCM) policy and strategic plan reflecting the reduction of carbon emissions and green house gases (GHG) in the years ahead? As public awareness rises, the pressure for companies to become more eco-friendly and offer GHG reducing practices has increased. More and more companies are adopting goals to reduce carbon emissions in years ahead, but how are they going to measure and achieve these goals? The challenge lies in how to characterize and measure the supply chain impact resulting from the deployment of eco-friendly products and processes.

World Challenge 09 is a competition organized by BBC World News Limited ("BBC World News") aimed at finding projects or small businesses from around the world that have shown enterprise and innovation at a grass roots level (the "Competition"). We want to hear from our viewers and readers about the social entrepreneurs who are making a difference without costing the earth. It could be you or someone you know.  BTTR Ventures is the only US finalist in the global competition.

BTTR Ventures (pronounced Better) stands for “ back to the roots, ” a phrase that encompasses the idea of creating a company that stands for sustainability, progress, and social responsibility.  BTTR Ventures, formed by Alejandro Velez and Nikhil Aorara , two innovative and passionate business majors from UC Berkeley, aims to turn one of the largest waste streams in America, the tons of coffee ground waste generated daily, into a highly-demanded, nutritious, and valuable food product – specialty mushrooms.  BTTR donates 10% of profits back to the community. In addition, this venture is creating new jobs in local urban areas.
