Ensuring the Future by Acting in the Present
A full house for “Greening Your Bottom Line” business breakfast The business community comes together to learn how to go green! What do you get when you put 104 people together at breakfast on a rainy Tuesday morning? You get great minds thinking alike at the Sustainable Cherry Hill Greening Your Bottom Line event May 1, 2012. SCH’s Green Building/Business task force designed this event over about five months and the team succeeded in drawing top-notch business leaders to learn and share about green business practices. SCH executive board member, task force leader and Spiezle Architectural Group’s Scott Downie led the presentation that was originally developed by Marstel-Day analyst and task force member Tony Tancini. В Tony & Scott collaborated to come up with the key questions and some thought-provoking answers on why a business should work to reduce its impact on the environment, how to get started and what actions will lead to results.
.
The question-answer session and networking put many businesses together on how to collaborate on potential greening projects as well as sharing best practices. Because of the success of the sold-out event and enthusiastic interest, the task force will work to plan a follow-up event later this year.
.
Many thanks are extended to Mayor Chuck Cahn who welcomed the attendees and promoted participation in the “It’s in Our Power” program that continues in the township. The task force and Sustainable Cherry Hill are also grateful to Leadership sponsors including Hutchinson Mechanical Services and the law firm of Montgomery McCracken as well as event sponsors Waste Management, Arch Design Architects, White Optics, Organic Diversion, Trinity Solar, Wu Associates, ZLED Lighting and in-kind sponsor Camden County Regional Chamber of Commerce.
