Lakeside Be Smart

Lakeside Vision Green: Our Green Commitment

At Lakeside, we are committed to continually reducing our environmental footprint. As a carbon neutral company, our goal is to lead by example in an industry that has an opportunity to make a difference. Under the Vision Green Banner, we are committed to making changes within our business that reduce our carbon impact, and we offset what we cannot yet eliminate. We support our customers in their quest to reduce their footprint and we work with carriers to help them reduce emissions.

Carrier Initiatives

Vision Green adds a new element to our comprehensive Carrier Relations Program. In partnership with EPA SmartWay, we work with our carriers to quantify and reduce emissions with technology, education and communications. Ongoing dialogue – one-on-one, presentations, bulletins, etc. – is the core strength of our carrier relationships. More Details
