Here at A & A, we have been doing some things to lessen our impact on the Earth.
Below is a list of items that we have started -
- Installed motion activated lighting in washrooms
- Installed motion activated lighting in infrequently used rooms
- Purchasing energy efficient PC's, Notebook and servers
- Recycling old, outdated PC's
- Shutting down PC's overnight for Earth Day
- We black-out monitors after 5 minutes of idle time
- Using half the lights in the IT office
- Turning off server room lighting
- Encouraging no printing on Earth Day and as little printing as possible always
- Defaulting printers to two sided on Earth Day
- Lower wattage bulbs in our office lighting
- Recycling programs in our offices
- I drive a Hybrid vehicle
We consider the environmental impact before making a purchase of a product or service.
An Earth Day logo will be on our website today and tomorrow to 'inspire awareness of and appreciate for the Earth's environment.'
I believe this quote sums things up very well "WE DO NOT INHERIT THE EARTH FROM OUR ANCESTORS: WE BORROW IT FROM OUR CHILDREN."
