Environmental and Sustainability Policy

​

At Find Me Alive (FMA), our mission is centered on protecting lives and serving families, but we also recognize that the health of our planet is directly connected to the well-being of people everywhere. Environmental responsibility and sustainable practices are not optional—they are essential to building a safer and more secure future. This Environmental and Sustainability Policy outlines how Find Me Alive integrates environmentally conscious practices into our operations.

​

Our Commitment to Sustainability

• Responsibility Beyond Business
  We believe that protecting lives includes protecting the environment in which those lives are lived. Our commitment extends beyond compliance with regulations to proactive steps that reduce environmental impact.

• Continuous Improvement
  Sustainability is not a one-time effort but an ongoing process. We regularly evaluate our practices and look for opportunities to minimize waste, reduce emissions, and adopt greener alternatives.

​

Operational Practices

• Digital-First Approach
  Wherever possible, FMA prioritizes digital communication and documentation to reduce paper use and physical waste.

• Energy Efficiency
  Our technology infrastructure is designed to balance performance with responsible energy use, reducing unnecessary consumption while maintaining reliability.

• Responsible Sourcing
  When partnering with vendors, suppliers, or contractors, we prioritize those who demonstrate environmentally responsible practices in their materials and operations.

​

Waste Reduction and Recycling

• Minimizing Waste
  We limit single-use materials in packaging, events, and outreach whenever alternatives are available.

• Recycling Programs
  Recyclable materials are used and disposed of responsibly, with a preference for sustainable packaging and office supplies.

• Electronic Waste Management
  Outdated or damaged electronic equipment is disposed of through certified e-waste recycling programs, reducing the risk of environmental harm.

​

Awareness and Advocacy

• Educating Our Community
  We encourage users, partners, and contractors to consider sustainability in their own choices, from energy use to waste reduction.

• Supporting Broader Efforts
  FMA supports broader public awareness about the link between environmental health and community safety, reinforcing that sustainability is an important part of public well-being.

Compliance with Regulations

Find Me Alive complies with all applicable environmental laws and regulations. Beyond meeting minimum standards, we seek opportunities to exceed compliance when it aligns with our mission and capacity.

Our Ongoing Promise

Environmental stewardship is a natural extension of our mission to protect and serve people. By reducing our impact, encouraging responsible practices, and supporting sustainability in our partnerships, Find Me Alive is committed to doing its part for both current and future generations.
