LIVIN' GREEN and LOVIN' IT (with a little help from our friends)!
In the early 1990s, going green simply meant buying paper and other products that were made of
recycled materials or could be reclaimed from the waste stream for some additional use. Today, green takes
environmental stewardship to a whole new level. It is an approach to purchasing products and services that
creates a healthy living and working environment.
As a result, property managers and governments (federal, state, county and municipal) are seeking to
incorporate environmental considerations in their buying decisions. Simply stated, they want a healthier
environment for their tenants, citizens, and employees. Many commercial buildings and properties, lodging and
hotel operations, and government facilities have mandates or policies to be green. Renown® Green Seal™
certified products can help you achieve green status.
