Champion of the month - Teresa Olson
I'm very proud to be a member of the Environmental Team! It's great to be part of an organization that has the foresight to support our environmental efforts and empower its employees to educate and help initiate and implement change. On a personal note, I have been involved with recycling since the mid 80's. I lived in the South and at this time, recycling was voluntary. The local waste management would supply a plastic bin for the customer to bag separately glass, plastic and aluminum. The newspapers had to be placed in a brown paper bag. We've come a long way. The knowledge we have today of how products and our personal choices affect our environment help us all be more responsible in creating a healthy planet for our children and future generations.
