We'll estimate your business' CO2 emissions based on information provided by the business, including waste generation, transportation, and energy use, etc. In a fun, interactive workshop, employees learn how to support and reinforce other's efforts to change wasteful behavior.

Groups of 5 to 20 employees complete a checklist of office and individual practices during a brown-bag lunch. A facilitator leads an exchange of questions and information that show how changes in an individual's behavior in the workplace can have a cumulative environmental impact.

Six months later, the facilitator will follow up with an evaluation of the same factors.

Workshops are free, and are sponsored by the Vermont Earth Institute , 10% Challenge , and Chittenden Solid Waste District.
