As the weather starts to warm and we’re all thinking spring, we encourage you to make use of our Green Discount. Atlantic Veterinary Hospital is the only veterinary hospital we know of that offers one.
Energy use makes our biggest impact on environment. So, if you walk, ride your bike, carpool, or use public transportation to reach our hospital, we thank you by offering a 5% discount on all products and services during your visit.
We continue to explore additional ways to make our hospital more environmentally responsible, from the energy, water and supplies we use, to the products we stock and recommendations we make.
For example:
- We support Seattle City Light’s Green Power Program. The Green Power Program funds local renewable energy demonstration projects in Seattle and the suburban areas that City Light serves. It also funds renewable energy education and training programs for teachers, students, and the general public.
- We use LED and fluorescent lighting throughout the hospital
- All office and cleaning paper products we use are made of 100% recycled materials
- We compost, reuse, and recycle everything we possibly can
- All of our cleaning and laundry products (except small amounts of necessary disinfectants) are biodegradable and environmentally safe
- All our appliances are Energy Star rated
- During our recent mini remodel, we used environmentally-friendly paint and other products
- Our new email reminder system decreases the amount of paper used for reminders
Share your ideas with us about how we can continue to decrease our carbon footprint!
