J.M. Rodgers Co., Inc. is committed to becoming a sustainable and environmentally-conscious company by regularly reviewing our best practices for environmental impact as part of our overall commitment to continuous improvement.
As a green logistics provider, there is no better way for us to directly impact our environment for the better than to support the planting of carbon-capturing trees. Our goal is to plant 5,000 trees in 2020-21, which will be achieved through both direct donations as well as volunteer work of our employees.
Other steps being taken within JM Rodgers to meet our green initiative goals include:
- 100% recycling of all eligible materials at our offices by providing clearly-marked recycling recepticles
- 100% elimination of single-use Styrofoam and paper cups by providing and mandating the use of reusable beverage containers at our offices
- 100% elimination of plastic straws
- 25% less plane travel by optimizing off-site meetings by geographic area
- 20% less paper usage by continuing to transition to digital
- 10% less energy for heating and 15% less energy for air conditioning by adjusting programmable thermostates and ppgrading HVAC systems with energy-efficient units
