Savings from More Responsible Supply Chains

Thank you to GreenBiz.com for pointing me to this article by Joel Makower on Grist.org. It speaks of how companies can save money by greening their supply chain. In particular, it tells of how Baxter Healthcare has saved millions of dollars by choosing a slightly more expensive, but much more energy efficient lightbulb. Baxter has made other changes to their supply chain as well.

The article also mentions, "the U.S. EPA's Green Suppliers Network, a public-private partnership, [that] aims to help suppliers and manufacturers eliminate waste, save money, and reduce their eco-impact."
