Protecting the environment
In addition to creating and maintaining natural habitats at her home in Burton, Texas, Leslie is a contributing member of The National Wildlife Federation and The Nature Conservancy. Leslie is also a member of the National Recycling Coalition, The National Resources Defense Council and The State of Texas Alliance for Recycling.
The conservation and sustainability policies practiced personally are also
incorporated into our business. This is accomplished through:
• Recycling all paper, plastic and glass products used in daily operations.
• Using recycled office products and earth-friendly janitorial products wherever possible.
• Using 100% recycled paper for all business correspondence and printed materials.
• Using renewable energy.
• Using energy efficient lighting and temperature controls in the office.
• Turning off all electronic equipment at the end of each workday.
• Identifying additional or alternative uses for existing resources before purchasing new ones.
• Reducing fuel consumption by decreasing driving speeds and consolidating appointments and meetings to avoid single-purpose trips.
Leslie continues her own education in the area of environmental impact and sustainability so that she may help clients who want to effect positive ecological change in their own businesses and communities.
