NYGB is a free and voluntary program that provides recognition and benefits to businesses that have a strong commitment to sustainability. Businesses that join the program receive recognition from the State, are able to use the program logo to market themselves as a sustainability leader, get priority access to technical assistance from the Pollution Prevention Institute, and access to a network of sustainability leaders. While all businesses can join the program, it does have a separate application and criteria for breweries, garment cleaners, and restaurants to address their unique environmental impacts.<\/div>\n
Applications and more information on the program can be found on\u00a0the DEC’s website<\/a>.\u00a0DEC also has a\u00a0fact sheet<\/a>\u00a0about the program.<\/div>\n
