Use the Web to Promote Your
Company's Recycling Program

By now, most organizations have created a web site to promote their services and products to the world across the Internet. Why stop there? Your company’s web site can also be used as an important educational tool to educate your staff about your recycling program. It is also an easy way to demonstrate to your customers and the local community that your company is doing its part to improve the environment.

Your “recycling information” web page can contain guidelines and statistics that inform employees and visitors about materials that are recycled, where they should be placed, updates, statistics, and contact information for further questions. By establishing recycling information on your website, your organization will also have an updateable resource that staff can printout and use at anytime.

Take a look at some impressive company/university recycling web sites:

University of Massachusetts, Amherst:

Riverfront Office Park - Cambridge, Massachusetts
