economics of converting existing vehicles to compressed natural gas or
electric systems. We will visit two local shops June 17th from 5 -7

Net Impact SLC visits GreenFiber |
|
NetImpact SLC was treated royally by GreenFiber employees during our on
site visit on Wednesday, April 29th, 2009. The event was fantastic – we
were greeted in person by their Frog mascot at the door and warmly
welcomed.
GreenFiber™ website: www.greenfiber.com
Our group of seven NetImpact SLC members were introduced and given an
overview of their business, followed by a tour. In one hour we were
able to walk through their entire operation and see the incredible
potential for a triple bottom line advantage created through recycling
paper goods from paper towel tubes to cereal boxes, cardboard
containers to regular office paper. (BTW, a triple bottom line
advantage is when people, resources, and businesses all stand to
benefit from an action.)
I have excerpted a few pieces from their website and have included them
below for your potential reading pleasure. Many thanks to Becky for arranging this terrific opportunity to see
how progressive businesses can be if they focus on being socially,
economically, and ecologically responsible.
