Ten tips for a greener office


-Turn off equipment that need not be on when you’re out of the office

-Print and copy double-sided

-Edit documents on screen rather than printing out and hand editing

-Convert paper files to electronic file

-Activate your computer’s ‘sleep’ mode option so that when the machine is not being used, it will automatically switch from full power to sleep mode. This can reduce your computer’s energy use by as much as 70%

-Use water-based ink

-Copiers use more energy per unit than any other type of office equipment. Try to make double-sided copies whenever possible
-Recycle all waste

-Buy recycled toner and ink
