Green Business Ideas
Often we are asked for the 10 most important actions to green your business. In no particular order, here are some of the most important actions:
- Switch off all lights when not in use (especially at night, weekends, holidays)
- Turn off all IT equipment and other electrical appliances when not in use
- Make sure all electrical items are switched off at the power point when not in use for extended periods
- Disable screen savers as they often use more energy than less
- Make sure the heating and cooling are not set too hot or too cold
- Walk, ride a bike or take public transport to work
- Teleconference rather than make unnecessary trips
- Recycle everything you can
- Strive to operate a paperless office
- Install a water filter instead of purchasing bottled water.
