HELPING BUSINESSES TO GO GREEN.

Five super simple, no cost, things to do today to make your business more green

​

​

1. Encourage and incentivise employeesto get out of the car! Walking or cycling is better for the environment – and helps towards your 10,000 steps a day.  Just one person swapping a 20 mile round trip can reduce annual carbon dioxide emissions by 2.177 tonnes.

​

2. Simple and obvious! Just don't waste! In practice, in a busy working environment it is very easy to slip up on this one. It is very easy to misuse resources or to not housekeep and maintain properly.

​

3. Recycle as much as you can. A recycling strategy that

means that at end of life products are recovered and

remade, is a quick and simple step to greening up your

business, but also a brilliant way to save on costs.

​

4. Swap out plastic or disposable cups for ceramics. 

Choose to reuse whatever you can, wherever

you can.

​

5. Turn it off. Lights in unused rooms or equipment

on standby. An average PC monitor on standby

uses 51 kWh per year of electricity .
