6th December, 2007: Bigelow Tea Recognized for Environmental Leadership
The Connecticut Post reported this week that Bigelow Tea will be among this year’s honorees at the Bridgeport Regional Council (BRBC) annual dinner which takes place tonight. The council is recognizing one state agency and five area businesses for their environmental leadership. Bigelow Tea was chosen because of exemplary efforts made to reduce energy costs by installing solar panels in their facility. Bigelow Tea was creative and financed part of the cost with a grant. In addition to R. C. Bigelow Inc, the other “green” regional businesses being acknowledged are Aquarion, St. Vincent’s Medical Center, Santa Energy of Bridgeport and Urban Green Builders.
These companies are an example to all businesses…while being “green” means saving the environment…it can also mean saving the other green — $$$ — in the process!
