With rising energy costs, increased competitive pressures, customer demand for transparency, and new regulations mandating efficiency and conservation, there is no better time to invest in sustainability.

“The Sustainability Action Plan is specific and unique to each organization – it quantifies the savings in energy, water, waste and production costs and results in substantial savings. The Circles have led to a robust exchange of ideas, leading to solutions, better communication between the City and its businesses and organizations, and new approaches to sustainability from all parties.”
