Renewable Energy Practices
As part of its "Green Initiative", the company recently updated an 11,000 square feet (1,000 m2) building in Wilson, North Carolina, with a renewable energy system designed to "recover" methane gas, a normal waste by-product that had, until now, been released into the atmosphere.
