Reducing CO2

  • Every company is able to reduce their carbon footprint to zero.
  • Even smaller changes can offer a 20% reduction of carbon dioxide.
  • Why not consider making some of the following changes?

Save 1 kg of CO2:

  • If 20 staff turned off their computers during their lunch break.
  • 4 days use of a 100W energy efficient light bulb rather than a standard bulb.
  • 6 days of 400 staff recycling waste paper rather than sending to landfill.

Save 1 tonne of CO2:

  • If 150 standard light bulbs are changed to energy efficient bulbs.
  • A reduction in use of air-conditioning by 10% over the year.
  • If all office lights were turned off at night for a year.

Save 100 tonnes of CO2:

  • In one year of 27 cellular offices turned down their heating by 1 degree.
  • Switch to a green electricity tarrif to save CO2 over the year.
  • Save 5,000 flight miles by installing a video conference system in your office.

Save water by:

  • Installing a 'save-a-flush' into the toilet cisterns.
  • Washing cups together in a sink of water rather than under running taps.
  • Use energy efficient dishwashers.
  • Use 'grey water'.
  • Replace urinals for waterless systems.
