About:
Greening your own office
- You buy Ecover hand and dish washing liquids and you have a recycling bin for paper.
- You may think you are being green but this is only tokenism, there is so much more that a practice can do or adopt.
- We are surrounded by many violet default actions that need a little guidance towards greener alternatives.
- There is plenty of evidence that staff appreciate a good employer and a green one more so, but tokens are not enough, today we all expect much more than that.
- This CPD will introduce a raft of ideas for your consideration, that can be implemented with ease and others that need management and staff buy in.
- This CPD engages topics as wide as:
- Information Sources and Standards, MOBS, ISO 14001, WELL, Health and Wellbeing, Fit out and refit, Ska.
- Getting to work, Urban/Rural, Public transport/bikes, Conference calls, using lifts/stairs,
- ITC, Kitchen, Food, water, Waste/segregation/recycling, WCs, soap, FSC paper/recycled, hand drying,
- Monitoring/metering/controls, Space ownership, Power, Energy, Heating, Ventilation, Lighting, Emergency lighting/signage,
- Furniture, Stationery, Information Library.
There is something for every shrinking violet or darkest green practice.
