Today I found out many ways America First Credit Union is going green. I wanted to share a few:
1. 461,360 lbs of paper recycled
Saving:
· 3,922 trees
· 761.2 cubic yards of landfill psace
· 87,658 gallons of oil
· 1,614,760 gallons of water
2. Lighting Environmentally Efficient
· All T-8 fluorescent blubs
· Recycle bulbs
· Motion switching
· Photo cells
· Computerized lighting schedule
3. Landscaping
· Zero scape
· Drip systems
· Indigenous plants and grass, drought hearty for the Utah area
4. Recycling
· Cardboard and paper
· Asphalt and cement
· Carpet tiles are made of recycled carpet

These are just a few items. I am proud that America First is environmentally aware.
