The next time you’re driving by UMG, take a look at the roof line of our building. You’ll notice (50) 200 watt Photovoltaic panels that generate 10 kW of electricity to help keep UMG up and running (sorry for an October pic. that is otherwise green-free). That’s right; half of our power consumption now comes from the sun with less harm to the environment around us. Part of our mission here is to be as environmentally responsible as possible. Our new solar array along with our Greenware cups, Eco-sleeves, and our Fair Trade Organic Roastery, is just another step towards assuring a better future for generations to come.
