As a business we have a commitment to keep up with ways to reduce our carbon footprint. When we learned about the opportunity with Tradewater to actually do an in-depth analysis of our business to offset our emissions on an annual basis we jumped all over it. I truly believe there are a lot of companies out there like us who want to do something but don’t know where to start and this is a tangible way to get involved and make a difference.
