We’d like to thank you for implementing programs and practices that reduce our impact on the environment and maintain a safe and healthy environment for our employees. Here’s what happened under your leadership.

·          Managed all environmental compliance and stewardship activities, as well as employee health and safety programs at our wholly-owned Global Production facilities in California, Europe, and Mexico.

·          Broadened your six to ten years of EHS background as you’re now focusing on it all:

air, waste, water, safety, and more.

·          Enjoyed a daily vineyard view from your office in Hopland, California where we run on nearly 100% renewable energy as we farm, harvest, and annually bottle over 1 million cases of Fetzer and other wine brands.

·          Worked for an organization that has top-down commitment to sustainability and corporate responsibility initiatives. (You’ve practically memorized all 52 pages of our 2007 Brown-Forman Corporate Responsibility Report.)

·          Realized that although you’ve spent a majority of your career in manufacturing, different environmental impacts and opportunities must be considered when making products that people consume.

·          Moved our winery operation closer to reducing energy consumption by 10% from 2005 usage levels and implementing strategies to achieve these reductions by our 2010 deadline.

·          Ensured that our sustainability programs are robust and documentation is complete.  

·          Developed and analyzed “what-if” scenarios as we awaited final results on pending water rights permit applications and then once approved, you implemented appropriate strategies before harvest.

·          Enhanced our use of metrics, analyzing the data, and setting goals.

·          Enjoyed being part of the wine operation’s leadership team where your EHS expertise is valued. And you’ve represented the EHS viewpoint on several cross functional, global teams.

·          Worked with our creative brand and advertising teams on how to best communicate our environmental successes on our packaging, labels, and other product materials.

·          Represented Brown-Forman to governmental agencies, non-profit entities, community groups, and trade associations.

·          Added stamps to your passport since you’ve traveled to meet with EHS colleagues at our facilities in both Clintock, Ireland where we bottle Southern Comfort and to our  Casa Herradura facility in Amatitan, Jalisco, Mexico where nearly 800 employees make tequila using 100% agave.

·          Taken in many of Mendocino County’s fine offerings including wine tasting; green living; easy access to peaceful redwood forests, Pacific Ocean views, and local ski resorts; rubbed shoulders with more artists per capita than any other rural county.  And occasionally made the scenic, congestion free trip down Highway 101 to San Francisco, just a couple of hours to the south!

Now back to today……
