I found this to be the CDC Association's best green training so far. Steve Melink himself walked us around his green building, showed us the energy efficient products they produce, and a plug-in solar panel for home use they are developing. Care and green thinking have gone into the smallest details in the building, and sustainable ideas abound. From marketing person Jennifer Sivak I learned that they have a company wide lunch on Mondays, and department lunches on Wednesdays, provided by the company. Melink also pays the difference between a hybrid and a regular model when employees purchase cars. So not just in construction, but in human resources, this is a sustainable company. The results of Steve's inspiration to walk his talk is impressive.
