Comment:
Evergreen Printing is a California Certified Green Business, recognized by Alameda County. We received technical assistance from our local Green Business Program and as a result, we have saved water and electricity, reduced waste to the landfill, reduced vehicle trips, and switched to greener products. All of these steps reduce greenhouse gas emissions and provide multiple environmental and economic benefits. We could do still more with additional assistance and rebates. Small businesses are a large sector of the state’s economy. The California Green Business Program is a comprehensive, one-stop shop for small-to-medium sized businesses like mine to go green, be better neighbors in their communities, attract and retain customers, quantify environmental benefits, and save money. We highly recommend other small business engage with the Green Business Program. We believe that many small businesses making changes, as we did, can have a big cumulative impact in the state. We strongly encourage your Board, the Governor’s office, and the State legislature to consider including a small business element in your investment plan. Sincerely, Dave Karoly Evergreen Printing
