NRA Launches Green Initative Website
The National Restaurant Association has launched its website, “Conserve Solutions for Sustainability,” as part of its environmental initiative for the foodservice industry with funding from the Turner Foundation. The website is a pretty good resource for culinary arts and hospitality educators or students who want to learn more about conserving the resources it takes to run a sustainable foodservice operation without compromising customer satisfaction. The website is easy to navigate and has tabs such as: News & Events, Understand the Issues, Conserve Now, Find Resources, and About NRA Conserve. One of the aspects I liked most was interactive Virtual Green Restaurant and Success Stories (under the Conserve Now tab). The website can be accessed by visiting: http://conserve.restaurant.org/
