“Green” initiatives can help deliver a healthy environment for generations to come. Environmentally friendly solutions face the stigma of having a high price-tag, thus they are often overlooked. While the environment is not a topic that the public generally agrees upon, financial savings are highly embraced. In these tough economic times, Camden County continues to demonstrate that it is possible to make environmentally friendly choices while saving money. They have incorporated good stewardship of both natural and fiscal resources concurrently. Such environmental-friendly changes have saved Camden County over $1,700,000.
