Sustainability-In-Action: High Vibe is a retailer of raw, organic foods and natural supplements and cares deeply about the environment. The store gets all of its power from renewable energy sources. They are conscientious about energy and limit its use by plugging electronic devices into power strips as well as shutting off unneeded lighting during the day. In addition, High Vibe uses reusable materials for cleaning and maintains a beautiful indoor plant collection.
Sustainability Goals: They plan to thoroughly renovate their air conditioner housing with improved insulation to increase cooling efficiency. They are also interested in replacing their sink aerator to reduce their water usage as well as work to further reduce their trash output.
