One Percent for the Planet Archie's Island Furniture's commitment to the environment... Archie’s Island Furniture is committed to using only environmentally harvested, sustainable timber resources for all of its products. But we realized that when it comes to responsible environmental policies, extra effort and commitment on every business’s part is required. Recognizing the importance of environmental stewardship, Archie’s Island Furniture joined 1% For The Planet as a member company in 2007. 1% For The Planet is a growing global movement of 786 Companies that donate 1% of their sales to a network of more than 1,500 environmental organizations worldwide. Member companies donate directly to their desired nonprofits—not through 1% FTP - to encourage independent, personal relationships between member companies and the groups they support. When we consider the enormity of the environmental crisis it’s easy to feel overwhelmed and helpless. Obviously, the solution is not as simple as changing an incandescent bulb to a CFL. Our support of 1% For The Planet is enables Archie’s Island Furniture to take a lead role in being environmental stewards and to set an example for the rest of the business community. These companies embrace the notion that the sustainability of the natural environment is fundamental to the sustainability of business.
