Natural Resources and Reducing Impact

Our Goals to Reduce Our Impact

•  Goal #1, Zero Waste to Landfill by 2016

92% of waste has been redirected from landfills so far, companywide (for the fiscal year 2012).  We’ve significantly reduced the amount of waste we generate and the number of trash pickups.
