Your business can play a major role in saving the environment by reducing waste and encouraging your team to recycle. Below are tips for your workplace to better minimize waste and recycle.
Understanding what you most typically discard will only help you understand how to improve reduction and recycling.
If there is a trashcan, put a recycling bin at its side to encourage recycling.
You can easily start saving paper around the office or facilities by maintaining a scrap pile for those pages that aren’t printed correctly, or large scraps of paper. Managing your documents to have margins of .75 inches as opposed to the standard 1.25 inches will help fit extra words onto the page. Double-sided printing can be another simple way to conserve paper around the office.
Eating in a restaurant rather than having takeout at lunch can reduce trash accumulation from lunchtime. Lunchboxes are proven to reduce the amount of paper and plastic bags thrown away.
Reusable mugs and water bottles are relatively inexpensive and greatly reduce the amount of cups and bottles disposed of daily. You might even receive discounts from coffee shops when you bring in your own mug.
You can still keep your customers well-informed without handing out physical newsletters. Adopting the electronic newsletter is a fantastic way of conserving paper while showing customers your efforts to be green.
