NJMC MEADOWLANDS CHALLENGE

The New Jersey Meadowlands Commission’s Meadowlands Challenge is a fun and friendly competition designed to promote energy efficiency, increase recycling efforts and helps address the causes of global warming within the Meadowlands area.  The challenge encourages area businesses to examine their energy use and recycling practices and find ways to improve performance in these areas. By telling us ways that you are “greening” your business to become more energy efficient and environmentally friendly, we are able to pass that information on to other businesses. Companies that participate will be publicly recognized as “Green Leaders.”
