seems like the definition given ("positively influences the environment") would require the facility to produce something of value to the environment rather than simply doing no harm. I.e., solar distributed back into the grid, compost production, waste heat recovery, etc. etc. Simply having a zero-waste facility, laudable as it is, wouldn't fit the criteria given.
