The word is getting out!  The Sustainable Business Network of Central Arkansas was featured in a recent Clean & Green segment of Talk Business with Roby Brock.  The segment also featured Robyn Madden of NAPCO, one of our terrific Charter Members.  In case you missed it, watch the video online!

We are also fortunate that our members are being showcased on the monthly Clean & Green Hour on KABF community radio.  On January 16, Ron Hughes of HERS, Inc. was featured (another great Charter Member)!  Would you like to be the SBNCA member business featured on the next show?  Contact us!

Arkansas Children's Hospital (ACH) is one of the newest Charter Members with the SBNCA.  We recently spoke with Joe Knight, the Environmental Management Coordinator for ACH, to find out what types of green or sustainability initiatives they have underway. 

We found out that ACH is growing its recycling program.  ACH is currently "recycling paper generated from the destruction of confidential documents, recycling and reusing Xylene in the Histology lab, and recycling electronics waste, rechargeable batteries, lead batteries, and mercury containing lamps (including green-tip)," according to Knight.  In addition to recycling, Knight tells us that ACH utilizes "6 electric vehicles for the transport of visitors and internal delivery of supplies and is focused on the reduction of medical waste generation through the use of reusable sharps containers."

Way to grow green, ACH!
