Advancing Business Sustainability in the Verde Valley
On March 30, 2023 members of the Verde Valley community came together to learn about resources that help align businesses with sustainable targets. Sustainable business practices can save money, delight customers, and attract and retain great employees. Programs and organizations in the Verde Valley that assist business in becoming sustainable were presented.
Participants were introduced to programs that answer questions such as, Is your Verde Valley business using sustainable practices? If you are working to reduce waste, reuse existing materials, conserve water, minimize energy use, and strengthen the community, you could be gaining recognition in the community.
Verde Valley sustainability leaders are working to help regional businesses become more sustainable. In the attached slides meet program leaders in the area and learn about available resources.
