Beer Bottle Temple Slideshow The Southeast Regional Green Committee is interested in hearing YOUR company's "green" story. Has your firm "gone green"? Tell us about your efforts -- no matter how large or small -- to reduce energy consumption and waste and promote sustainability.
Perhaps your "Green" story involves a green building project that raised your client's awareness about energy efficiency. Maybe you've encouraged LEED training for your staff. Or, you've replaced the styrofoam cups with ceramic ones in the breakroom. Tell us! We want to feature those ABC member companies who are embracing "green" in big and small ways so we can learn from one another.
