FLINT, MI. — Mott Community College in Flint is the September recipient of the FOX
66 Green Business Award! The Green Business Award is presented to one local business
each month for taking strides to make their workplace more eco-friendly. Internally,
Mott utilizes recycling, reusing, energy and paper reduction, all in an effort to
keep our planet green. MCC is actively pursuing many green initiatives through careful
evaluation and testing to make sure that these measures result in both cost savings
and a realized environmental benefit. In addition, MCC has established the Green Initiative
