What is the Eco-Business program?
A: Quite simply, the board has combined the expertise and knowledge of a number of its qualified members to form an Eco Business Advisory Committee. These volunteers have spent many months researching and creating our Eco-Checklist as a resource for businesses to use as a template to evaluate their role in doing all they can to sustain a cleaner environment.
