Sustainability at Waste Management
Sue Briggum
Vice President, Federal Public Affairs
Company Overview
WM has been providing sustainability
services for decades:
• Largest provider of residential recycling
in North America – 8.5M tons processed
in 2009
• An early developer of technologies to
convert waste to renewable energy
through landfill gas to energy and waste
to energy projects – powered 1.1M
homes in 2009
2
Internal Assessment in 2007
3
New Sustainability Goals
 Triple the amount of recyclables we collect to over 20
million tons per year
 Decrease our emissions by 15%
 Double the renewable electricity we provide – to 2M
homes powered
 Increase fourfold the number of wildlife habitats
certified by the Wildlife Habitat Council -- protect
25,000 acres (goal already achieved 10 years ahead
of time)

Is Sustainability a Viable Platform for
Future Growth?
• Government mandates – disclosure regimes like TRI,
landfill bans, recycling goals, Extended Producer
Responsibility programs, agency procurement policies,
greenhouse gas reporting and reduction frameworks
• Customer preference, driven by reporting and brand
image
• Community preferences for green business and
social responsibility
• Investment community expectations
• Limits to the world’s resources
5
How We’ll Achieve Our Goals –
Sustainability Drives Investment

productive on
average
•Quality equals
that of
segregated
streams
