GREEN BUSINESS PROGRAM
GREEN BUSINESS SUPPORT
We are taking a step back from our membership program to make sure that our efforts in the commercial sector are having the biggest impact both in emissions reduction and sustainable business practices.
We are still here to support our business community in your unique sustainability endeavors. We can provide resources on anything from LED upgrades to financing and implementing building renovations like insulation, weatherization, and more. Our sustainability guidebook is a great place to start for resources, incentives and more!
WHY Become a more 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!
