These practices have been effective in cutting down on wastes and saving money in the process.

1. Many companies are buying and using recycled paper products

2. They are sending out less mailings, preferring to use faxes and emails instead

3.Use of energy efficient lightening/ use of alternative energy supply, not only cuts costs on some major electrical billings, but,provides a more comfortable and environmental friendly workplace

4. Use of energy efficienet appliances like those at Kenmore Appliances also saves on cost

5. Many businesses are using the Brita On Tap Filtration System which to lessen the amount of contaminant in faucet water

6. Hospitals and Medical Centers are obtaining electronic data input for patient care/assessment information instead of copious amts of paper usage

 A few everyday changes that are made in the workplace, as well as in the home, goes a long way in helping the environment…

  1. Good tips, Clara! I recycle paper, well sort of, by taking printouts that I no longer need and printing on the reverse side. I work out of a home office, too, so I can hang my laundry out to dry when the weather is nice. Does that count? 🙂
