Reduce the use

[incywincy]

Just found this website http://www.reducetheuse.co.uk/

.... and remembered seeing a thread about reducing waste/environment friendly businesses etc? Can't find it now!!!

Some useful tips on there though.

I've been away for a couple of days so I'm not sure which thread you're referring to but if people are looking for an easy way to start being a greener business then moving over to recycled business materials has got to be a good start - along with recycling any paper waste.

I only print my personal business info onto recycled paper, however I use as little paper as possible to reduce my impact as much as possible. I've found a few good environmentally friendly printers who use not only recycled paper but also non toxic inks etc.

Little steps are often the best and the more businesses that can do this the better IMO :)

we bought a shredder and we're now recycling stuff that wouldn't go in the recycling bin cos of the identify theft risk or because it's clients' stuff, it's getting used for guinea-pig bedding :cheesy:

It was mine, asking what more we could do as businesses for the environment.

It may be a good idea to collect a useful list of points.

does anyone know anything about the 1% for the world project, where you give 1 of profit to charity?
