In Breckenridge, our locally-owned small businesses are partners in our efforts to reduce our carbon footprint and consciously take care of this beautiful place we call home.

Resource Wise Program

To help businesses practice sustainability and other environmentally friendly plans, the town teamed up with the High Country Conservation Center (HC3) to create a green business program.  Resource Wise businesses across Summit County have had positive impacts on our community by reducing their carbon emissions, energy use, and waste, as well as improving recycling, composting and purchasing practices. Many of these businesses have streamlined operations and saved money doing it.
