Switch It Off


There's also some simple steps about the office environment

Switch off all computer equipment, appliances, motors and machinery when not in use.

Take the stairs, not the lift.

If your workplace is too hot, turn the heating down instead of opening a window.



Switch It Off
Report over-heating caused by equipment or poor ventilation to your line manager.

If it is too cold in winter, ensure radiators and heaters aren't obstructed.

Check if lighting is on unnecessarily in the middle of the day.

If you are the last to leave, make sure you turn everything off behind you, including machinery, printers, drinks' machines, fans, lights, etc.

Remember the green travel plan – car share, cycle, use public transport or walk.

Recycle, think about how you can reduce waste, use paper printed on one side for note-taking.

Print on both sides of paper, re-use envelopes.
