GEP is seeking new companies interested in realizing its sustainability and carbon reduction goals. They aid through coaching, educational opportunities and peer networking. They help its members in decreasing operational water, waste, and energy use according to a press release.

GEP is hosting weekly information sessions for prospective businesses to gain an understanding of their operations.

Information sessions will be held at 2 p.m. on Oct. 4, 11 and 18.

Registrations for information sessions are online or contact natalie.stephenson@greenup.on.ca for more information.

“Green Economy Peterborough is a great local resource that provides the tools to develop a plan to mitigate greenhouse gas emissions while aligning with business goals,” said Michael Papadacos, GEP advisory committee member.

Companies that register to become members of GEP will get started in January. Early-bird registration saves businesses 10 per cent on membership costs and ends on Nov. 1, with regular registration continuing through the fall as stated by the City.
