Protect the environment with the power of environmentally preferable purchasing
. Federal, state
and local governments, as well as schools and universities are
following legislative and policy mandates to help them achieve broader environmental goals
through the purchase of high-quality green products. Individual citizens,
businesses and
nonprofits can also learn about EPP and how to buy environmentally-preferable products.
Through the purchasing power of these entities, we can drive down the cost of
recycled content and other green products and create viable markets for the recyclables collected
in our communities. Join the challenge by making a conscious decision to purchase
with the environment and human health in mind.
