Sustainability Committee

GOED's Sustainability Committee is an educational forum for member companies that hosts monthly presentations on environmental, social and governance-related (ESG) topics throughout the entire EPA+DHA value chain, from raw materials to product marketing. 

The committee meets by videoconference on the third Wednesday of every month. Below is a list of current members. Please contact Chris Gearheart if you're interested in joining.
