May 18, 2007—The US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has launched a new Web site on stewardship programs, designed to help business, government, and private citizens make intelligent choices on sustainable environmental benefits.
The Web site will enable users to find EPA partnership programs, such as the Energy Star energy saving program, that best align with their needs and interests. Businesses can search for EPA programs based on their industrial category, environmental issue of interest, and geographic area. One specific Web site, for example, shows businesses how they can help employees reduce the environmental impacts of commuting.
The Web site also provides information links individuals can use to protect the environment in different settings, such as home, work, school, and shopping. For example, a page on Taking Action at Work gives tips on reducing energy use; how to reduce, reuse, and recycle office products; and how to use water more efficiently.
