Take Charge of Alternative Energy Plans - Learn how at NHSEA Home Energy Conference

Before you invest more money and dependency in conventional energy sources, listen to Adros Energy certified industry expert Philip Morano speaking on Renewable Energy at the 3rd Annual NHSEA Home Energy Conference to be held at Plymouth State University on Saturday, November 21, 2009.

NH-based company makes software for greening the supply chain

There was a notable blog recently in the Harvard Business Review on:

I work for a NH-based company. We make software. The software manages chemical substance data -- for environmental compliance in supply chains.
