CHARLESTON - State businesses and organizations can learn about "going green," how to improve their environmental performance and reduce the size of their environmental footprint by attending one of three upcoming Environmental Management System workshops sponsored by the West Virginia Department of Environmental Protection and the National Pollution Prevention Roundtable.
There will be three, two-day workshops in two different locations. Each will be directed and instructed by Greg Adolfson, Sustainability Officer for the West Virginia Department of Environmental Protection and Jeffrey Burke, Executive Director of the National Pollution Prevention Roundtable, both of whom are certified EMS Lead Auditors. The EMS workshops also will include guest presenters from West Virginia industries that are going green and have also adopted EMS concepts and principles as their guide.
