    Having spent more than 25 years in the environmental services industry at WM, I have seen our company and industry evolve with women playing pivotal roles in operations, finance, sustainability, and beyond across the sector. My passion for the work we do and the growth of women as our industry grows has only gotten stronger. That’s why it’s an honor to be named one of Waste360’s 2025 Women Who Inspire alongside four incredible leaders, women who are driving progress and reshaping our industry while driving positive impact on their teams and communities. I’m so grateful to my WM team, mentors and colleagues for their support and guidance over the years. Collaboration is the key to success, and I would not be where I am today without you. I’m proud of what we’ve accomplished together and excited for what’s ahead. #WeAreWM https://lnkd.in/gzhitAhz

    Spring is in the air, and we’re getting excited to kick off our second year as Major League Baseball (MLB)’s first Official Sustainability Partner. Together, we’re advancing sustainability across the league and at events like the All-Star Game and the World Series. We’re also supporting teams like the Milwaukee Brewers and Colorado Rockies with recycling, composting, fan engagement in sustainability and more. But did you know that WM has been advising customers on sustainability for years? We take lessons learned from the WM Phoenix Open to teams, organizations and venues, creating tailored programs that meet them where they are on their sustainability journey. As WM Chief Customer Officer, Michael Watson, put it: “We’re not going to come in and say you have to be zero-waste tomorrow. It's more about finding the right opportunities that make sense in your locale because there is already an infrastructure in place.” Learn more from Candace Oehler at Forbeshttps://bit.ly/4bftPG5.

    Working with companies that share our same core values helps us to drive a more sustainable future, which is why our collaboration with Anthropologie has been such a success. In 2024, we worked together to divert more than 40,000 pounds of plastic waste from landfills—a 13% increase in URBN (Urban Outfitters, Anthropologie Group, Free People & Nuuly)’s waste reduction efforts since launching the initiative! Watch to learn more about our work with Anthropologie.
