Sustainable Connections, a local organization worth looking into

This summer, I was a Marketing Intern at the Downtown Bellingham Partnership. Through the partnership, we worked with Sustainable Connections. If you aren't already aware, Sustainable Connections is a non-profit local organization working with Bellingham businesses on energy efficiency, sustainable businesses development, and green building.

It's really interesting to see what businesses in our community are doing to move towards sustainability and eco-friendly business practices. I would highly encourage anyone that hasn't already taken a look to check out the website: http://sustainableconnections.org/. Specifically, I am really amazed with the Zero Waste campaign, which already has over 150 business participants committing to a 80% reduction in waste. For a listing of these Bellingham businesses, check out:http://sustainableconnections.org/bizdev/tzw/tzwbiz. You may be happily surprised with the Bellingham community!
