Follow the GWC home page and social media for more featured stories of our competitors! _______________________ "At Allegheny County, the 2015 GWC has become a team event. Our workforce is engaged in ensuring that the county’s efforts to reduce energy and water usage and waste are sustainable and also expand beyond our walls. With active participation by our Green Team and Green Champions throughout the year, our employees have also embraced the efforts at the county and adopted many of the practices at home. Together with the other GWC participants, we’ve been able to reduce costs, improve performance, and increase long-term environmental sustainability, making our region a better place for all." _______________________ "Not only does the GWC foster some healthy sustainability competition between companies, but it allows the representatives for the company such as Nancy and I to become even more engaged with the operations and activities of our own workplace, as well as find inspiration in the actions of other organizations." _______________________ "Seeking a zero waste office is good for everyone. Five Star was able to realize a major transformation in our office environment shortly after we began the GWC. Our air quality and trash/recycling load, the balance between artificial and day light, the plants we share and foods we eat, even the water we drink –were all improved by our participation and we even saved money! As a 20 year veteran of the tech Industry, Five Star knows impact and longevity come from improving year over year, so we are looking forward to next year’s challenge!" |
