NEW Continual Improvement Commitment for Maryland Green Registry Members

 A commitment to continually improve environmental performance has always been a guiding principle of the Maryland Green Registry and an approach that pays great dividends in terms of environmental benefits and cost savings.  Recognizing this, the member application now asks for a commitment to "strive to continually improve your environmental performance" and to "update your member profile at least every three years."  

What does this mean for new and current members?  It means that all members should continue to educate themselves on environmental best practices, solicit ideas from employees, participate in Maryland Green Registry member contests, and try to expand upon or implement at least one new practice each year. The Maryland Green Registry website is full of tips and resources and we offer programs, webinars, and on-site technical assistance throughout the year to support you.  

In terms of updating your profile, we encourage members to identify annual goals and projects and update your member profile annually. At a minimum, members are asked to update their profile every three years in order to stay on the Registry list. 

Thank you to all the Maryland Green Registry members for your continued participation in the program. Your energy, enthusiasm and innovation shines through in your member profiles and is inspiring to the many visitors to the website from around the state and around the world.  Keep up the great work!
