ESG Bookstore, specializing in books on environmental and sustainability issues, has opened at 195 Nassau Street in Princeton, N.J. TapInto reported that the shop "offers newly published books for all age groups, including families and youngsters and age groups from 3 to 18 years. Books on similar topics for parents and youngsters are also available."
"There is a growing awareness of the need to adopt a sustainable lifestyle to help preserve our planet," said Trishala Bavishi, founder and CEO of ESG Best Reads, which operates the bookstore. "Further, the education and corporate ecosystems are encouraging people to learn more about ESG (Environment, Social and Governance) to meet the business targets for sustainability."
Bavishi and her husband, Vinod Bavishi, oversee the operations of the ESG Bookstore, which is located in the historic Nassau Street business district. To facilitate browsing, 10 workstations are also set up in the space.
"A vast collection of books also caters to a range of readership profiles from different academic, professional, corporate and personal backgrounds," she said. "A special collection has been identified for vacation reading as well as for book clubs."
In addition to the bookstore, ESG Best Reads provides a platform for a Read-and-Certify certificate program that is open to high juniors/seniors, undergraduate, and MBA students as well as corporate staff. An ESG Reference Centre database is also available and continuously updated with new sustainability topics.
