How to green your office

Today, “green” is no longer just a color — it means “earth-friendly.” This workshop, which will be offered during TriSec 16, will provide you with tips to make your office more earth-friendly, from reducing electricity and paper usage to increasing your own ecological awareness to recycling and choosing to use green office supplies.

Ask yourself these questions:

  • Do I switch off my computer, lights and other electronic equipment in my office overnight or when not needed?
  • Do I send and edit documents electronically whenever possible, to save paper?
  • Does my office participate in a recycling program?
  • Is my office kitchen equipped with reusable utensils and plates, rather than paper or plastic?
The opportunities are endless and you can make a difference. Make your workplace more socially responsible and earth-friendly. This exciting workshop and many more await you at TriSec 16!
