Purchasing Overview
The purchasing decisions your company makes, from printers to party favors, all have an impact on the environment. Consider the environmental effects of the products you purchase -- both upstream and downstream -- and give preference to ecologically preferable options. Try to reduce your ecological footprint and encourage the widespread adoption of environmentally responsible purchasing practices.
