The Green Business Network of Springfield Member Certification Program helps local member-businesses take steps to “green” their operations and recognizes businesses for their efforts in areas including energy and water use, business practices and organization, community involvement, paper use, transportation, and more.
GBNS Member Certification Program provides member-businesses a way to:
- Differentiate your business from your competition.
- Spread the word about your outstanding business sustainability efforts—through the media, on your website, and more.
- Help you track your progress toward your company’s sustainability goals.
- Make an action plan for steps you want to take to “green” all areas of your business.
All content, initiatives, and information included in the GBB platform is available at no cost to members. To download the certification seal, members will pay a small annual fee to cover the costs associated with running the online program.
NOTICE: FOR A LIMITED TIME, GBB IS WAIVING THE ANNUAL FEE TO ENCOURAGE GBNS MEMBERS TO JUMP INTO THE CERTIFICATION PROGRAM. BECOME A MEMBER, GET STARTED WITH THE PROGRAM, AND DOWNLOAD YOUR SEAL BY DEC. 1, 2011, FOR FREE!
The value of the GBNS certification lies in the fact that it’s local, and it provides a way for other businesses and community members to clearly see the moves you are making to become a green business—lending your sustainability initiatives credibility and transparency.
