Corporate Social Responsibility is the idea that companies can invest in society and the environment while also operating and profiting as businesses. But what does that look like? How can your company or organization Take Care of Texas through environmental social responsibility?
Start by identifying ways you can conserve resources and protect the environment where you work. Maybe it’s replacing appliances for more energy-efficient models, placing a recycling bin in the copy room, carpooling, reducing company vehicle emissions (Texas Emissions Reduction Plan), or even hosting a team-building outdoor cleanup.
TCEQ hosts the annual Texas Environmental Excellence Awards, which recognize the environmental efforts of individuals, businesses, and organizations in Texas. If you seek inspiration for your CSR project or program, you can see videos of past winners on TCEQ's YouTube channel. Learn more about the TEEA awards.
