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. The recovered gas assists with the plant's energy needs; additionally, the plant's water treatment system has accrued a 6-million-US-gallon (23,000 m3) gas digester which is meant to ensure a more efficient water treatment process.

“To learn a vocation, you also have to learn the frauds it practices and the promises it breaks.”
