    Recycle! Show recycling center! Start with $2.50 and reach $225 in 2 years! That’s what happened to me, Florence Cua-Christman.

    Not quite sure you know how it works? Many municipalities and even Corps have rules regarding lowest bid? In fact many have a purchasing dept and it leaves you little to no input in the decision making process. Sure you can suggest and recommend green but it better be the cheapest option for the task at hand.

    I’ve found that real change starts with visibility—mapping emissions, engaging suppliers, and embedding circularity into every node of the network. It’s not just about green products—it’s about green thinking at every stage.
