(Bellevue, PA) Revival on Lincoln (“Revival”) announced December 16th, 2019 that it has earned the Silver level designation as a Sustainable Pittsburgh Restaurant. A Sustainable Pittsburgh Restaurant demonstrates commitment to managing the social and environmental impacts of its operations as central to its strategy for business success.
Administered by Sustainable Pittsburgh, Sustainable Pittsburgh Restaurant is a performance program that recognizes restaurants for working towards building vibrant communities and supporting environmentally responsible practices. Developed with regional experts and industry insights, the program features 149 sustainable actions from which a restaurant can choose. It is tailored for restaurants in southwestern Pennsylvania that are working to save money, bring in more customers, conserve resources, serve vibrant communities, and make a valuable contribution to local and regional food systems.
To help ensure a vigorous program and give proper credit where it is due, Sustainable Pittsburgh requires a self-declared validation statement by the restaurant for each selected action within the performance assessment. Level of achievement is based on total points accumulated from all selected actions. Restaurants are recognized with one of four levels of Sustainable Pittsburgh Restaurant designation ranging from a Bronze to Platinum.
In earning the Silver designation, Revival is acknowledged for its efforts in addressing areas such as energy efficiency, water use, healthy dining, sourcing responsibly, being active in the community, and providing a workplace that fosters employee growth.
