Going Green
Being a good corporate citizen means serving our customers while looking out for the next generation. Through corporate initiatives and locally driven “green teams,” we are working to improve our environment and eliminate waste. Our associates make a difference every day with environmentally safe, local and enterprise-wide recycling initiatives of paper, batteries, toner and ink, electronics, aluminum cans and more. In 2010, we launched two additional Green Office initiatives focused on eliminating unnecessary printing; and saving energy through our computer power policy which puts computers in a “sleep” mode during times of non-use. Combined, we expect the programs to produce $5 million in annual savings, eliminate more than 15 million pounds of greenhouse gases (a 47 percent reduction) and save thousands of trees.
