NYS has launched a new website, Green CareersNY, as a portal to help visitors find information on a variety of “green” topics -- including green jobs and careers, how to get green training, and incentives for going green.
On the business page, valuable resources include: information regarding green building regulations, corporate greening strategies, and obtaining "green" business certifications such as LEED and BPI. There are also links to government sites that detail incentives and tax breaks available to businesses that make strides toward "going green" including:
- NYS Weatherization Assistance Program
