Each month we are prompting employees to explore two words that we believe connect our mission, vision, and core values.

Therefore, it can be much more efficient and beneficial if we start our conservational efforts by reducing the number of items we are using and disposing of in the first place.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Recycle:<\/strong> Recycling focuses on collecting and processing recyclable materials that can be turned into new products, rather than being thrown out as trash. This process can significantly decrease the amount of waste that is sent to landfills and incinerators, as well as conserve natural resources and save energy. This can also mean personally recycling things for alternate uses vs. throwing them away.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>We received some fantastic responses, as seen in the collage above!
