It is $350 if you purchase Green Plus through your chamber or commerce - a savings of $200. To take advantage of the Green Plus chamber partner discount, you must be a small or medium-sized business member (500 or fewer employees) of a participating chamber. By mutual agreement, we may select to work with organizations larger than 500 employees. To inquire about such opportunities, please email Chris Carmody at ccarmody@gogreenplus.org.

The national Green Plus Directory is a listing of Certified Green Plus organizations as well as those businesses that have completed the Green Plus Diagnostic and are working toward certification. The Directory is a great resource for locating sustainable businesses, gaining exposure and recognition for your own green and sustainable efforts, and advertising your products and services.
The Green Plus Diagnostic Survey is the first step in the Green Plus program. The tool helps measure your business’ strengths and areas for improvement in terms of People, Planet, and Performance. At any point in the questionnaire, you may Ask US questions online or use the How To Guide to learn more about a topic in the questionnaire. If your organization falls short of a qualifying score, you can work with our staff and partners to implement a sustainability plan toward certification.
The Green Plus Sustainability How To Guide gives you definitions to sustainability issues, and easy, medium and advanced steps to include in your organization’s sustainability plan. The How To Guide also provides links to national and regional resources to help you improve your performance.
Have you implemented something that has positively changed your organization? Share it with our online community of like-minded organizations! Need some advice on your sustainability plan? Ask Us. Post your question and our staff and university partners will research it for you – or you may also hear from businesses like yours who know the answer as well.
