Over the last year, the Green Business Leaders team has collaborated with regional partners to develop several new tools and hosted virtual events to provide your work places with accessible and useful waste reduction resources. You can find new applications to our Green Business Leaders certification, a guide on how to build a green team (even a virtual green team!) and a checklist on how to have a more sustainable home office. You can view lots of video recordings on our new YouTube page , even the recent Green Business symposium recording on how local organizations are addressing the climate change impacts of food waste.

We also have several ways for you to learn more about recycling and waste reduction by using our What to Recycle Where tool, liking our Facebook page and connecting with us directly!

The new year is a great time to adopt a new approach to waste reduction especially as a team. Save food and money by creating a cohort of fellow coworkers who are up for the 4-week Eat Smart, Waste Less challenge (ESWL) and receive weekly support from a Washington County staff coach! Taking the challenge alongside a cohort will also give you the chance to share your experiences, challenges, and successes with like-minded people.
