During my project, I assisted Town and Country Markets Inc. (T&C) in reaching their sustainable business practices goals. I did this by acting as an environmental consultant. T&C was a case study to examine larger issues in developing environmental business practices. The purpose of this study was to explore sustainable business practices and their benefits to the environment. Therefore, to understand the value of sustainable status to businesses.
