How It Works

Here are the first four steps to getting started:

1. Identify one or more project(s) for consideration in the program. The project's starting point can range from zero sustainable actions to achieving LEED status.

2. Look at the pledge commitments. Think of your company's Colorado projects. How many commitments are already being performed? How many could your company strive for?

3. Email or call Michael to review the feasibility of each commitment. Michael can be reached at 720-279-4795 (cell) or at michael@recyclecolorado.org.
