Abstract
The United States (US) Army became the first agency in the federal government to apply the Global Reporting Initiative guidelines to its sustainability program in 2007. It fully reported on 28 performance indicators and partially reported on another 12 in its first annual report. The second annual report for 2008 fully reported on 25 performance indicators and partially reported on 22. For each year, the US Army achieved the Global Reporting Initiative Administrative Level B for its sustainability program. The US Army has established sustainability as department policy, developed courses to indoctrinate senior leaders to the concept, and made a commitment to practicing sustainability. This report describes the evolution of sustainability as a multidimensional management paradigm in the US Army, identifies the Army Triple Bottom Line, and explores next steps, including the use of sustainability as a force multiplier in contingency operations.
