Businesses know that becoming
environmentally green is not only a good idea, but it's also good business. Fortunately for visitors and residents alike, Durham has its fair share of businesses that get this concept.
Businesses that have been recognized by North
Carolina’s NC GreenTravel Initiative
are realizing substantial savings in their energy, water and waste disposal
bills. In Durham, NC businesses recognized by GreenTravel include The King’s Daughters
Inn,
Hilton
Garden Inn, Ninth
Street Bakery, Museum of Life & Science
and Festival
For the Eno. Across North Carolina, over one-hundred
businesses have applied for, and received, recognition by the program at no cost.
In addition to the resource savings, these
businesses also receive free listings on the NC GreenTravel website,
a certificate of sustainability and door/window decals indicating that they are
recognized program members. They also have the option of requesting free
environmental assessments from Waste Reduction
Partners, a partner organization that provides environmental
technical assistance to businesses across the state.
