New York, NY – The Training Farm, one of the leading software instruction and film editing schools in New York, embraces environmentally-friendly practices that help companies across the country limit their global impact and improve the quality of life for generations to come. The Training Farm film editing school implements several energy-saving practices, as well as participates in recycling programs, and uses sustainable products whenever possible.

"Just as we challenge our film editing school students to do their best in their work, as a company we also strive to do the best work possible for our students, as well as for our communities." said Josh Hull, business development and marketing, The Training Farm. "By implementing some simple but effective changes in our business practices, our film editing school was able to reduce our carbon footprint and energy consumption."

For every dollar The Training Farm spends on utilities, they pay a percentage to purchase carbon credits from wind energy sources, to balance the impact. The film editing school's other green practices include using only recycled paper and recycled cleaning supplies; Energy Star-rated products; wireless Internet, instead of hardwired; and online storage, instead on in-house servers. The Farm in also phasing in LED monitors for all of their teaching and work computers.
