There are lots of books available to help you "green up" your business! We've made a careful - though subjective - selection of books for you to add to your reading list. A new one crossed my desk that I think you should take a look at:
Greening Your Business - The Hands-On Guide to Creating a Successful and Sustainable Business, by Daniel Sitarz.
If you're looking for a good story or inspiration, pass this one by and go on down the
WTT Going Green Reading List. It's not a book of essays or success stories; it's a guide. Guaranteed to put you to sleep! But, you'll find sources, resources, check lists and even a CD in the back full of forms and spreadsheets to use.
Part One provides a background on the need for greener business practices and the benefits for your business.
Part Two provides a blueprint with which you can assess your own operation and develop a comprehensive plan for taking your business green.
We're not kidding! It touches on every element of a plan - energy and water use, waste generation, transportation, computing and office equipment, supply chains and purchasing, building practices, and product and service design. And to support all this, the CD contains 30 forms, 20 articles and documents (PDFs), 10 dynamic worksheets, and dozens and dozens of Web links to all kinds of public and private organizations.
