Changing the way we think about waste can foster new, sustainable ideas. Pollution is simply wasted inputs. Why pay for raw materials that you are just going to throw away? Look at your company's waste: raw materials, heat, effluent. Much of it can either be reused or sold as raw material to another business, resulting in savings or new revenues for you.
We would like to hear from you! Do you have a green tip or idea that has made a difference to your business or organization? We’re encouraging Power of Green delegates to send in their tips so that other’s may learn more ways of being part of a sustainable economy. Tips may be featured on the website.
