Sustainability
Our strict digital and recycling policy significantly reduces our environmental footprint to ensure we play a role toward a sustainable environment.
Here are some steps to help you go Green:
- Turn off equipment when it's not being used. This can reduce the energy used by 25 percent; turning off the computers at the end of the day can save an additional 50 percent.
- Encourage communications by email, and read email messages on screen to determine whether it's necessary to print them. If it's not, don't!
- Reduce fax-related paper waste by using a fax-modem and by using a fax cover sheet only when necessary. Fax-modems allow documents to be sent directly from a computer, without requiring a printed hard copy.
- Produce double-sided documents whenever possible.
- Find a supply of paper with maximum available recycled content.
- Choose suppliers who take back packaging for reuse.
- Instigate an ongoing search for "greener" products and services in the local community. The further your supplies or service providers have to travel, the more energy will be used to get them to you.
- Before deciding whether you need to purchase new office furniture, see if your existing office furniture can be refurbished. It's less expensive than buying new and better for the environment.
