Living Green At Work

While businesses in the region are ahead of the nation with high rates of recycling, they do make about half of our trash, so if we are going to reduce our region’s waste, businesses must play a critical role. By reducing waste, we can save natural resources and energy, prevent pollution and help extend the life of our landfills.

Moreover, green and sustainable practices at work not only make for a healthier community, but a healthier workplace with happier employees, a positive public image, and often times a better bottom line. It is no longer an "either, or" proposition: being green at the workplace can be profitable too! Read on to see how easy it is to get started today.
