Customizing Your Business ' Green Plan:

• Chances are, you utilize a magnitude of equipment and devices each and every day to conduct business operations. Simply switching these necessary tools with energy-efficient models can help you save on utility costs while also reducing your carbon footprint.
• What kind of lighting are you using to illuminate your offices, halls, and storage rooms? By installing LED bulbs and motion-sensing lighting, you can reduce your energy bills while also reducing the harmful effects on the environment.
• Is your team diligent about turning off the lights and their computers after work each day? Far too many businesses waste an overwhelming amount of energy due to laziness. Put measures in place where your team knows the importance of shutting everything down before leaving the office each day.
• Have you considered installing solar panels? This is the most effective way for your small business to go green and it will also yield substantial tax benefits. Some solar companies even rent out their panels to growing businesses to assist them in their efforts to fully go green.
