GREEN BUSINESS GUIDE


We also provide sustainability consulting to match your business needs with local sustainability providers. Our Green Business Guide highlights resources specific to the St. Louis region, such as energy efficiency rebates and can give you an idea of the variety of ways your business can incorporate environmentally friendly practices.
 

GREEN BUSINESS CERTIFICATION


As a part of our Green Business Program, we offer a Green Business Certification, which recognizes and promotes local businesses making meaningful efforts to reduce their environmental impacts. Certified businesses will receive a complimentary storefront window decal, showing customers their efforts to operate in an environmentally and socially conscious way. Certified businesses will be promoted through Creve Coeur channels, such as the resident and business newsletters, the city website and at events like the Farmers Market and Arbor Day Celebration. Certified businesses are also eligible for other benefits, such as the Green Business Award.
