Angela Moore is the Sustainability Coordinator and serves as Project Manager for Missouri Historical Society's green building certifications. At the Missouri Historical Society, Moore oversees all sustainable operations across the institution which include, Missouri History Museum, Library & Research Center, and Soldiers Memorial Military Museum. Sustainable operations include green building certifications such as LEED, TRUE and Green Dining Certification for the restaurant located at the Missouri History Museum, it also includes community and employee engagement centered around environmental sustainability practices within the St. Louis community. The sustainability department consists of Moore and a sustainability intern, Victoria Coleman. Coleman helps with employee and community engagement and Moore works solely on green building certifications. Angela is a leader in the field and has generously offered to field questions about the Zero Waste initiatives she's started. One such initiative is the TRUE Zero-Waste project at Soldiers Memorial Military Museum. Soldiers Memorial Military Museum is the only museum in the United States and in the only building in the City of St. Louis to hold a TRUE zero-waste certification. At the completion of a major renovation of Soldiers Memorial Military Museum, the Missouri Historical Society earned a LEED Gold certification for the environmental work that went into the renovation. To further sustainable practices within daily operations of Soldiers, a TRUE zero-waste certification was introduced to lessen our impact on the environment due to waste practices. Over the past two years, the sustainability department began to implement zero-waste practices, policies, and trainings to successfully achieve a zero-waste museum.
