3/16 St. Patrick's Day

This month, we are going to feature "green" articles in honor of St. Patrick's Day! Each week we will give you an idea on how to go green or new news about sustainability. Some simple ways to go green are carpooling, recycling, composting, shutting down you computer at the end of every day, keep things digital and print the minimal amount possible, or work from home. 
We have two great articles for you to check out this week, the first is How To Go Green: At Work. These simples steps will make you green in no time! The second article is Going, Going, Green and talks more about going green outside of the office as well. 


We hope our green month makes you inspired to make a change, small or big in your life to go green. Happy March!
