Take our Poll
With the environment a major concern in the United States, and around the world, which of these practical steps is your company taking to address environmental responsibility?
We encourage in-plant recycling and have adopted the use of recyclable products and packaging.
We perform energy audits, and have installed energy-efficient lighting, employed more prudent use of transportation and more energy-efficient processes and machinery.
Our facility has worked to reduce emissions and better prevent pollutants from entering the surrounding air, water and land.
All of the above
There are already enough burdensome regulations for us to worry about. Doing more would only drive up costs.
