Sea kayaking goes green in Jersey
Going green touches the bottom line
We just had an article about our environmental activities published in Business Brief, Jersey this month.
I was asked to write the article to highlight how even small business can respond to Green initiatives. It was also to highlight how things are changing and the way environmental considerations can impact on business.
We are already members of EcoActive Jersey and achieved Green Tourism Business Scheme (GTBS) GOLD grade.
Read the article “Going Green touches the bottom line”.
