NRA Initiative to Conserve Energy
Green is red hot and there is no stopping what has become not so much a trend but a transition for the foodservice industry. To assist foodservice operations wanting to be more Green, the National Restaurant Association has launched Conserve at http://conserve.restaurant.org/. The website has useful information on resources and energy saving tips for restaurateurs to use to make their business more Green. There is even a Conserve / EPA Energy Star Challenge that is a pledge to conserve energy along with a free brochure on energy saving tips. Perhaps you might be able to sign your foodservice outlet on to the pledge and show your students yet another way to be more Green.
