What an amazing turnout, Reno! Thank you all for joining us at the New Energy Economy Summit yesterday at the Reno Sparks Chamber of Commerce. We loved hearing about the good work being done in our state to address energy demands, electrification, solar development, battery recycling, and energy efficiency improvements across commercial, municipal, and residential spaces! Discussing sustainable actions and industry challenges among so many stakeholders, utilities, and organizations is the key to reducing climate change impacts, ensuring equitable access to underserved communities, and protecting the health and wellness of Nevadans! Thanks for bringing good "energy" to the table, folks! ;D

Congratulations to NW Confections, known for their cannabis brand Wyld, on becoming a Tier 2 #GreenCertified business! They are the first cannabis company to join our statewide network, and they are committed to keeping Nevada green in more ways than one. For instance, they have installed outdoor solar lighting, replaced their indoor lighting with LEDs, and upgraded to touchless faucets. They also use green certified cleaning products and paper products with recycled content. Lastly, because their facility is located on Southern Paiute land, staff regularly conduct trash cleanups, and Wyld employees are encouraged to regularly volunteer and donate their time to environmental/social nonprofits.

Happy Innovator Monday! NVGBN wants to shine a spotlight on our #GreenCertified Innovator Businesses for their hard work and dedication to the network and the environment! Our Innovator Spotlight this week is for Gear Hut. Gear Hut not only addresses the need for an outdoorsy consignment store in the Reno area, but they’ve also implemented some fantastic waste-reduction measures at their Midtown location. For instance, all customer receipts are emailed, bags are not offered in-store, they utilize a reusable tagging system, and all new employees turn clothes they already own into their uniforms by sewing on a Gear Hut patch that identifies them. Gear Hut also does a lot to be active in their community like participating in KTMB's Adopt-A-Spot program and organizing community clean-ups. They've also worked hard with their building landlord to secure recycling options for not only themselves, but their entire business complex! Lastly, Gear Hut has an “unconsignable” bin in their store that aims to keep items that might have been thrown away out of landfills. People who bring items in can place these unsellable items in a free bin that anyone can take from. Thank you Gear Hut for all of your planet-saving efforts! You can find this Innovator Business and others just like it on our nationwide directory: https://lnkd.in/drknseJA Read more about Gear Hut and other Tier 3 businesses in our latest blog posts on our website: https://lnkd.in/gk8eGCzG #nvbusiness #nvgbn #NevadaBusiness #smallbiz #greencertified #sustainability #ecofriendly #GreenCertified #certifiedgreen #nvgreenbusiness #GreenBusiness #greenbusiness
