Manufacturing

Ways that Manufacturing Companies can Decrease Greenhouse Gas and Contribute to a Better Community


Conduct a pollution prevention inspection of facilities.
1.

Containerize waste: Use a bag, can and lid, lidded dumpster or tarped rolloff to prevent blowing, contact with water run-on/runoff and any other means of escape.
2.

Donate food, trash bags and trucks to help support local environmental groups involved in cleanups.

Make it convenient for employees to arrive by bicycle by providing safe "parking" for the bicycles, perhaps lockers and a place to change and wash up.
