Sims Sustainability Plan Includes Gender Diversity Global recycling company Sims Limited said it is striving to raise the number of women it employs from the current 21 percent of its workforce to 25 percent. In a posted essay on its web site, the company cites its se- cure electronics recycling and auto shredder residue (ASR) treatment efforts as two of those ways, and adds“closing the gender gap” as the third. “A diverse team improves the quality of decision making,” the company wrote in a posted essay on its web site, “di- versity in the workplace can increase customer insight and innovation in an increasingly global world.” American Beverage Selects Georgia county For Initiative American Beverage, the trade association representing America’s nonalcoholic beverage industry, has announced that Gwinnett County in Georgia is a recipient of funding under the Every Bottle Back initiative that launched last year. The goal of the initiative is to reduce the beverage industry’s use of plastic and keep its bottles out of the environment. The county has been awarded $100,000 to encourage residents of unincorporated Gwinnett County to request free curbside carts and to fund a recycling awareness campaign to increase recycling rates and decrease con- tamination.Additionally, a grant totaling $15,000 has been committed to the city of Norcross, Gerogia, to improve the quality of the community’s recycling stream, which brings the total regional investment through Every Bottle Back to $115,000.
