Going Green: The Eco-Friendly Efforts of Business
These days, it seems as though everyone is hoppin’ on the green bandwagon in an effort to reduce their carbon footprint - certainly a good thing no matter what the motivations. Companies like global food processor Cargill is using meat scraps to make methane, in place of costly natural gas. Renowned Utah caterers are using biodiesel blended with cooking oil from their very own kitchen to fuel their vans and trucks. Investors are heavily investing in wind farms throughout the Midwest and the industry of hybrid cars and flex-fuel is quickly seeping into the transportation industry, with carriers such as UPS researching how to reduce steep fuel costs.
