contract Magazine - Wal-Mart Goes Green

contract Magazine - Wal-Mart Goes Green:
"A big box retailer may not be the first facility that pops to mind when discussing sustainability, but Wal-Mart is hoping to change that perception. Its recently opened experimental Supercenter in Denver, Colo., is the second of the company's stores designed to reduce the amount of raw materials used in construction, substituting renewable materials when possible, as well as reduce the amount of energy and natural resources requires to operate and maintain the store. The first experimental store opened in McKinney, Texas, this past summer."
