Top 6 Tips to be Eco-Friendly in the Office Top 6 Tips to be Eco-Friendly in the Office

This week´s blog is about the Top 6 Tips to be Eco-Friendly in the Office.

 

Even small changes can save a lot of energy in the office. By behaving sustainably in the workplace, everyone can contribute to conserving the resources of our environment and preserving them for the future generations. This not only helps the environment in the long term, but also reduces the costs of running an office.

 

Here are the six best tips to get you started, which can reduce energy consumption in the office without restricting your daily work routine:

Waste Separation:

If you separate your waste (paper/ cardboard separated from organic waste and glass), it is easier to recycle it and make something new out of it. Effective segregation of wastes means that less waste goes to landfill which makes it cheaper and better for people and the environment. It is also important to segregate for public health.

 

Save Paper:

Do not print every email. Try to be as digital as you can. If you have to print use both sides of the paper, so you can reduce your paper and ink consumption. Think before you print!

 

 

Public transport instead of cars:

 

By reducing CO2 pollution, you can help reduce your carbon foot print. You enjoy a less stressful journey by letting someone else do the driving. You don't have to worry about finding a parking space. It also reduces congestion in the cities.

 

Use recycled paper:

Paper-recycling helps the environment by reducing the number of trees needed to make paper and cardboard. The production of one kilo of copy paper consumes about 50 litres of water and 5 kilowatt hours of electricity. Recycled paper saves 50% of the energy and 77% of the water.

 

Use natural light:

 

Try to use the sun light in your office. Place your desk near the window, so you can reduce your light. Use as much daylight as you can. Natural light in the workplace affects a number of health aspects such as mood, sleep, vitamin D levels and eye health, and increases productivity.

 

Virtual meetings instead of travel over long distances:

In the pandemic, it has become the new normal for many, but even beyond covid, questioning business travel is a good resolution. After all, business travel is responsible for a significant share of CO2 emissions worldwide and contributes greatly to environmental pollution. Video conferences are much more climate-friendly and also save a lot of travel costs.

 

That are just some tips that are easy to realise but have an positive impact on society and you can also save money!
