1. Promote This Greener & Better Business of Yours
Green is the new black. Eco-conscious consumers will actively seek out the greener option from lists of competing offers. So, don't be shy. Be sustainable!
Calculate your carbon footprint using one of the many free calculators out there, such as the
WWF version.
Compare your findings with competitors and share with customers.
2. Use Recyclable Packaging
