Get recognized for taking green actions! The EnviroStars program is a free, one-stop shop for Washington businesses to receive unique access to resources and technical assistance, while gaining recognition for protecting the environment and public health. The program unifies green business initiatives in the region and across all environmental areas, including energy and water conservation, pollution prevention, and the reduction of toxics, waste, and greenhouse gas emissions. This program provides an opportunity for businesses to communicate their environmental commitment to customers, employees, and their community.

Getting Started

Follow these steps to get information, help, resources, and recognition for actions that take your "green" efforts to a whole new level!

  1. Register online at www.envirostars.org.
  2. Fill out an application and go through the checklist of green actions across a variety of environmental areas. Completing more actions earns more points. Based on points achieved, EnviroStars offers three tiers of recognition and various marketing benefits to businesses at each level: Partner, Leader, and Champion.
  3. Once you submit the application for your business, it is reviewed by the Seattle Public Utilities EnviroStars program team.
  4. When your business is approved, you will receive a welcome packet that will include an EnviroStars window cling, certificate, and marketing benefits – such as being listed in the GreenBiz Tracker online directory, making it easier for consumers who share your environmental values to find you, along with social media promotion through the program.
