How Do We Become Green?

Becoming green does not happen overnight.  It is a process with many different aspects, from solid waste reduction to the use of earth friendly materials.

One easy way for a restaurant to start the process of “going green” is by recycling the waste fryer oil with a company that recycles it directly into renewable fuels.  This is an easy way to show environmental stewardship.  This step: 1) helps reduce our country’s dependence on foreign oil,  2) reduces the overall CO2 output of the engine effecting global climate change , and 3) is a step towards sustainablility and taking responsibility for our actions on this planet. 

Green Restaurants of Atlanta is a full service green oil collection company that can help you on your way to green.

Other simple steps you can make to help shift your restaurant towards green include:

1. Energy efficient lighting
2. Earth friendly take-out containers
3. Local food from local farms, preferably Organic
