Office Eco Tips

[Treehugger]

I have been appointed the Eco Officer for our office, a role which I intend to take very seriously. I have a few ideas gathered such as energy saving lightbulbs, insulating the office areas etc but wondered if anyone had any other tips that I can utilise? :)

Obvious things like recycling; paper, card, printer cartridges. But try re-using beforehand, using waste paper to make notepads, saving cardboard boxes for posting goods, reusing jiffy bags etc.

Make sure everything is turned off at night and nothing on standby.

Limit the use of chemical cleaners, use an ecloth wrung out in water with a drop of antiseptic liquid in.
Use the windows and blinds to control heating, lighting and ventilation.
