The Green Sports Directory is a publicly available comprehensive guide to local, state, and national contacts, programs, and incentives addressing specific sustainability topics. This directory targets facility managers to provide them with a single source to find the necessary contacts to make improvements to sustainability performance at their facilities. The research involved in the project assisted me in my study of what components are necessary for the implementation of a successful corporate environmental sustainability program.
