How green is your department? MHC wants to know which department is the friendliest to our environment. For national environment week, all employees will be asked to keep track of their participation in a set of 'green' tasks. The department with the highest number of green points will  lunch for their department as well as bragging rights and the highly coveted "kermit" that they may keep for one year. More details will follow. It's not easy being green but it will be easy to find ways to help our workplace be environmentally friendly. Please check with your department's admin assistant for further details and to sign up. You can also sign up for the National Commuter Challenge at http://www.commuterchallenge.ca/.
