“The program adapts to the needs of the company, community and environment by using collaborative contracts, charters and environmental management systems. The program goals include environmental improvement beyond that achieved through mere compliance, community development and economic gain. Wisconsin can gain a dual economic advantage by having a business friendly regulatory climate and being a good environmental steward. Being a good steward of our environment also makes sense for taking care of human health and creating a healthy environment to Grow Wisconsin’s businesses. It’s a win-win. Green Tier companies are committed to clean air, waters and land. And I think we can all agree that these are reasons people want to live here and some of the reasons businesses choose to grow here.”
