YES THERE IS ENVIRONMENTAL GOOD NEWS

Yesterday's Elmira Independent carrys the following story on page 8: "Local company earns B Corporation certificate". Enviro-Stewards has been in business for ten years in Elmira and they recently have received certification as a B Corporation. This certification indicates that while they are a For profit business nevertheless both environmental and social concerns are at the forefront of their business. The owner Bruce Taylor is a chemical engineer whose goal is to help clients reduce their environmental footprint. Essentially this means finding effeciencies in waste reduction, heating and electrical useage. Mr. Taylor has been able to combine a social conscience with business acumen and the result is good for him, his clients and society. Well done!
