myTurn.com and the United Nation’s Sustainable Development Goals
myTurn.com, pbc is on a mission. That’s part of our job as a Public Benefit Corporation (pbc). We exist not only to provide a best-in-class online platform that facilitates the reuse of products—but also to reduce the resource and carbon footprints of durable goods while increasing affordable access to those very same items.
Our biggest and most direct impacts can be seen in the the following areas:
myTurn is helping to increase building efficiency with the utility-scale efficiency libraries, building climate resilience in communities, and helping reduce product footprints through radical reuse.
-
Our platform is simultaneously increasing access to products, while reducing consumption –and the natural resources & energy to produce, transport, store, and dispose of products–by 90%.
-
Organizations are using myTurn to build more resilient communities, increasing access to products, and reducing consumption and waste of those very same products in hundreds of cities around the world
Our partners, customers, and supported programs, however, are using our platform to help further all 17 of the UN Sustainable Development Goals.
