Although saving the planet is best started from the ground up by individuals committing to make changes in their everyday lives, Ceres (pronounced "series") works to effect change in another important way: by influencing large companies and corporations. Founded in 1989, their mission statement is to harness the power of big business to promote the health of the planet and the people that live on it. Among their priorities are issues such as protection of the biosphere, sustainable and responsible use of the world's natural resources, reduction of waste, and environmental restoration.
