Recycle, repair, reuse

In both the manufacturing and disposal of the things we buy, we use energy and water. Making better use of the things we buy reduces our energy and water consumption on both ends. Double the benefit!
  1. Organize an office recyling program if one doesn't exist.
  2. Try to repair or donate for repair items that no longer work.
  3. Use your own re-usable coffee cup, rather than a disposable cup.
  4. Save and re-use binders, file folders, envelopes, paper clips, elastics, and other common supplies.
  5. Produce double-sided documents and photocopies.
