GREEN BUSINESS SUPPORT

We are taking a step back from the membership program to make sure that our efforts in the commercial sector are having the biggest impact both in the emissions world and sustainable business world. We are still here to support your business!

If you’re ready to make energy upgrades and aren’t sure where to start, reach out for support! We can provide resources on anything from LED upgrades to financing and implementing building renovations like insulation, weatherization, and more. Not sure where to start or looking for a specific resource? Our commercial sustainability guidebook is a great place to start.

About the Guide

EcoAction Partners has created this Sustainability Guidebook to help our regional businesses work effectively toward their sustainability goals. Sustainability is broadly defined as the practice of meeting the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs. This guidebook focuses primarily on energy efficiency, water efficiency, waste stream reduction, and transportation, with special considerations within our region.


WHY Become a sustainable business?


SAVE YOUR BUSINESS MONEY

An efficient building has significantly lower overhead costs. Let us help you reduce the initial investment through various rebates and grants for a faster payback time.

REDUCE GREENHOUSE GAS EMISSIONS IN OUR REGION

Commercial buildings contribute to one-fifth of our local carbon emissions through energy consumption. By upgrading appliances to more efficient models, weather proofing your business, and more, you can reduce the overall carbon footprint of your business. More information on the region’s current GHG inventory can be found here.

BE APART OF A SUSTAINABLE COMMUNITY

Lead the way toward establishing a community of businesses implementing and upholding sustainable practices. Set an example for other businesses and be a part of the growing movement of businesses making a difference!
