Help for Going Green at Work

GreenTbiz' Tent at the Mimico Summer Festival "Greening Our Community"
2008 @ wobuilt.com

Energy conservation and environmental issues are very significant in our communities today. We have recycling programs at our homes but what about our work environments? This is where an organization such as GreenTbiz can step in to help. GreenTbiz is a non-profit organization that advises small businesses on ways to reduce energy costs and how they can be more eco-friendly by putting less stress on the environment. They work in conjunction with the TABIA’s (Toronto Association of Business Improvement Areas). Both TABIA and GreenTBiz have a mutual goal and it’s an alliance that can be beneficial to both organizations.

GreenTbiz has many programs and services that can benefit small business owners by improving their bottom line as well as being more environmentally conscious.
Wo-Built can help a business with its remodeling projects and as a responsible business owner that believes in the work that GreenTBiz is doing, Wo-Built recommends the services of GreenTBiz to all its commercial clients. There’s nothing to lose and a green future to gain.

As a new resident of the Lakeshore Community, Wo-Built attended the 11th Annual Mimico summer Festival’s “Party in the Park” to mingle with other members of the community. Shortly before the start of the “Party” the skies opened up to give us all a shower. But that didn’t deter the party from happening or from us in attending. There were many booths for visitors to peruse. Amongst the many delicious food stands, the local Girl Guides chapter and The Humane Society, we encountered local MPP – Laurel Broten and Councillor Mark Grimes.

This year’s theme was “Going Green” and TABIA (Toronto Association of Business Improvement Areas) had many suggestions for being environmentally friendly. We were quite pleased as this was in keeping with one of Wo-Built’s 2008 initiatives to be more eco friendly. For our part, this year we have partnered with Trees Ontario in an effort to “regreen” Ontario’s forests. As we offer our clients environmentally friendly alternatives in our renovation business we were delighted to learn that other local business were like-minded.

Despite the rain and the threat of thunder storms, a good time was had by all. Wo-Built is proud to be a new member of this vibrant community.
