Why get greener?

The arguments surrounding environmental issues are varied, complex, often heated...and frankly, we don't much care...

It stands to reason that consuming more of the world's resources than can be replenished, or polluting the atmosphere unnecessarily, are selfish actions with little regard to other people let alone the wider environment.

Business not charity

Business is business, and we're certainly not suggesting that you cut your profit margins in two in an attempt to be more eco friendly, but...

Businesses can save money by adopting "greener" operational practices.

The days of paying more for recycled materials are fast running out, increasingly reliable electronic communications mean less need to travel, and even computers are becoming more and more energy efficient.

Waste not...

Many companies can become more environmentally friendly, just by being more aware of their waste.

The Carbon Trust have suggested that simply by switching off non-essential equipment and air-conditioning over weekends and bank holidays, the average business could save up to £6000 / year - and help save the environment at the same time.
