benefits of small business recycling.
Crystal
Lake Talks Trash
October 20, 2015
October 20, 2015
Two
sessions: 8:00 - 9:30 am & 6:00 - 7:30 pm
Crystal
Lake City Hall
100
W. Woodstock St., Crystal Lake IL 60014
These
events will highlight strategies to help small- to medium-sized
businesses save money with environmentally sound waste management
practices. Recycling and reusing materials in a business is an easy
way for business owners to cut waste management costs while
benefiting the environment.
The
branding company, Landor Associates, found that, “77% of consumers
say it is important for companies to be socially responsible.” This
social responsibility includes the company’s environmental impacts
and the steps taken to minimize environmentally harmful operations.
These
events are open to all businesses and residents of Crystal Lake and
the surrounding communities. We will also be joined by Crystal Lake
city officials and waste haulers for a wide-range of dialogue.
Small
business owners interested in starting a recycling program will be
provided with information on how their business can benefit as well
as actionable information for starting a program! This includes the
Defenders’ Small Business Recycling How-to Sheet and opportunities
for Defenders’ business memberships. Business owners can also talk
to a Sustainability Consultant from Ecossential Solutions Inc. for
additional information on the pros and cons of commercial recycling.
What
else is in store? A review of resources available to cut waste
management costs for small- to medium-sized businesses, interaction
time with Waste Management and MDC representatives regarding the
actual costs of business recycling, community discussions on the
benefits of commercial recycling, networking while enjoying food and
beverages, and a free entry ticket to the Crystal Lake Small Business
Drawing for each attendee.
Come
celebrate Crystal Lake’s continued efforts to promote
environmentally beneficial business and community goals with the
Crystal Lake Talk Trash event!
