The Maryland Chamber launched a new blog this week dedicated to discussing environmentally friendly business practices, environmental legislation affecting Maryland businesses, and tips on how to “go green.”

Earlier this year, we surveyed our members about their energy and environmental conservation efforts. The result was an impressive and creative list of green practices and initiatives being undertaken by member companies.

We will use the new Green Business Blog to take a closer look at these initiatives, talk to the people who put the practices in place, and learn about the advantages and challenges associated with them. We’ll also ask experts within our membership for tips and best practices that can help you make your workplace more environmentally conscious.

The blog will be frequently updated with news, photos, podcasts, and video updates. Visit the Green Business Blog here . We encourage you to join the discussion, suggest improvements, and share your stories with us. Tell us about the green initiatives at your company by emailing Krysten Appelbaum at kappelbaum@mdchamber.org.
