Green Consulting

In response to global warming concerns, pollution and rising energy costs Barton Marketing Group is now offering green consulting services. We are focusing on green transportation for corporate and government fleet operations as well as energy efficiency for residential and commercial buildings.

The technology now exists to reduce global warming pollution from the two largest energy consuming segments in the world: transportation and buildings. We are focusing our efforts on these two areas by providing expertise to our clients which help them incorporate energy efficient technologies into their daily operations.

Are you interested in saving money and the environment at the same time? Being green could be good for your bottom line and your image. If you are interested, please contact us to find out how!

10 Tips to save energy and curb global warming

1. Replace incandescent lighting with compact fluorescent (C.F.L) or light emitting diode (L.E.D.) technology.
2. Replace outdoor lighting with a bulb or fixture equipped with a motion detector.
3. Buy appliances that have the ENERGY STAR label from the Environmental Protection Agency, because they use less energy and water than standard models.
4. Insulate walls and ceilings.
5. Add insulation to the water heater.
6. Lower water heater to 120 degrees and drain any sediment.
7. Install low-flow shower heads and toilets.
