PepsiCo Sets Up In Curitiba
Curitiba, Brazil is known amongst environmentalists and urban planners alike as a world model of sustainability – 30 years ago, they implemented the ’Curitiba Master Plan’ to address the problems of urban living through progressive transportation systems and enviro-friendly social programs that address recycling creatively, expand green space and develop industry. I could go on (30 years ago!?!) but check out Frontline’s great coverage here. Pepsi recently announced their own model – a new facility in Curitiba that will focus on energy management through light conservation – that will serve as the standard for future PepsiCo facilities. The light system was created by Orion Energy Systems, who have retrofitted 80 PepsiCo facilities in the US so far.
