What is a Green Business?
Green businesses operate in ways that solve, rather than cause, both environmental and social problems. These businesses adopt principles, policies, and practices that improve the quality of life for their customers, employees, communities, and the environment.

What are some of the characteristics of Green Businesses?
Green businesses use their business as a tool for social change. They are "values-driven," not simply profit-driven. These businesses are socially and environmentally responsible in the way they source, manufacture and market their products, as well as the way they run their offices. Green businesses are committed to employing extraordinary and innovative practices that benefit workers, communities, customers, and the environment. E.C.O. can show you how to accomplish this!

What about the products my business currently uses?
The industry buzz is about the importance of the Green Supply Chain, which puts a serious emphasis on what products your company buys and what services it employs. Unless the products are green sealed and the service company is Green Business Certified, their claims to being Green may be little more than "Green-washing" and hype.  E.C.O. can show you which products to use and give you green resources for you to utilize so that your organization can become a truly certifiable Green Business.

Can we do this on our own?
In the past businesses have tried to become green on their own with very little success. We can get you there more quickly and more efficiently, while lowering your costs long term. As city, state and federal regulations grow, you and your organization will need to stay ahead of these ever-increasing mandates. Oddly, the government really doesn’t seem to have the answers regardless of their constant pressure on businesses to Go Green. E.C.O. has the answers for you! 

How much will this cost?
We pride ourselves on being affordable and practical for businesses of all sizes.  We offer Zero Cost Consulting. E.C.O. is here to make this affordable, fun and beneficial for you, your organization and your community. 

What does earning Green Business Certification mean?
Earning your Green Business Certified status is the first of many advantages with our system. Local and national identification as a Green Business is something that will add to your credibility at every level. This is not a "Buy a Membership" program. You will earn it, and it will have the kind of substance that demands respect.

E.C.O. will lead you every step of the way to becoming a Green Business!
