NOW THE STATE IS ASKING ALL SMALL BUSINESSES TO GET ON BOARD AND HELP EXPAND THE CALIFORNA GREEN BUSINESS NETWORK IN 2012. CALEPA'S DEPT OF TOXIC SUBSTANCE CONTROL SAYS THE PROGAM MAY GIVE COMPANIES A COMPETITIVE EDGE.
Sot Debbie Raphael - DTSC Director
Joining the California Green business program allows a business to demonstrate to their customers that they care deeply about the environment. That they care, in fact, so much that they're willing to look internally and ask themselves 'what can we do differently so that our business not only perhaps sells environmentally friendly products but actually acts in an environmentally responsible manner.

FOR MANY YEARS DTSC HAS BEEN HELPING MANY SMALL BUSINESSES GO GREEN...NOW THE PROGRAM, KNOWN AS AB 913 IS GOING STATEWIDE.
Sot Debbie Raphael - DTSC Director
We have found over and over again that one of the main benefits of being a green business is that customer recognition. Customers love it when they come to a business and they see the decal. They can easily identify what is a green business. Customers want to know that their dollars are being spent for the good of their neighborhoods for the good of the planet.
VO:
BUSINESSES HAVE A CHOICE OF WAYS TO BECOME CERTIFIED GREEN SUCH AS USING LESS TOXIC CLEANING PRODUCTS, INSTALLING LIGHT TIMING SENSORS OR RECYCLING CARTRIDGES IN PRINTERS. MANY LOCAL GOVERNMENTS AND ORGANIZATIONS HAVE PARTNERED WITH DTSC TO COME UP WITH A GREEN CERTIFICATION CHECKLIST.

What's wonderful about this program is that we set standards that are robust. That are achievable by businesses small and large, nonetheless, they have integrity and so consumers can be confident that if they see that California Green Business symbol it's meaningful.
Sot of Sung Lee - California Green Business Owner
What it did was change your mindset to (being) more conscious about how you use energy and overall...that's the key.
VO:
MORE THAN TWENTYSIX HUNDRED CA BUSINESSES AND AGENCIES HAVE MADE THE CHANGE... SO DON"T GET LEFT OUT! MAKE 2012 THE YEAR YOUR BUSINESS BECOMES GOOD FOR THE ENVIRONMENT, AND GOOD FOR YOUR CUSTOMERS
