Switch it off

It’s easy to forget to turn off electronics when you’re in a rush, but it’s also costing you money. So save yourself some money and unplug electronics before you head out the door. Computers and printers can all be turned off.

Recycle

It’s easy we all recycle at home, so why don’t we do it at work as well? Recycling is important and we should all be doing it whenever possible. So start recycling materials such as plastic, glass, paper, aluminium cans, and many more.

Bike to work

Cycling is not just a fun way to get your blood pumping, it’s also one of the most eco-friendly ways you can travel. Cycling also takes up less space than other modes of transport. So why not join the Bike2Work scheme?

Kitchen costs

A simple way to save money and energy is in the kitchen. Only boil the amount of water you intend to use when making tea or coffee. And be sure to unplug appliances when they’re not in use. Even if they’re turned off, they can still use energy.

Energy-efficiency

Improving the efficiency of your energy usage will not only have a positive impact on the environment, but will also lower your business costs. Get started by switching to energy efficient heating, plumbing, LED bulbs and by using smart devices to measure your usage.

Water waste

Did you know that the average person uses around 142 litres, of water each day? In the office, you can reduce your water usage and bill by making small changes. Collecting rainwater, and ensuring your plumbing is running efficiently.

Cut plastic out

We all know that plastic is bad for the environment. It pollutes our oceans and landfills. So what can we do about it? Use less plastic. Opt for reusable water bottles, and coffee cups. Avoid single-use plastics whenever possible.

Energy sources

Ever thought about how your business can save energy? Why not use alternative energy provider that uses; solar power, wind power, and water power? These avoid releasing any toxins into our atmosphere.

Why should my business be greener?

We all know that we should be doing more to save the environment. But what does that actually mean?

Well, there are a lot of things we can do on an individual level to help out, and going green is one of them. By reducing the amount of pollution that enters the soil, water and air, we can all make a difference. It’s not just good for the planet, going green can also cut costs, improve efficiency, and create healthier workplaces. Less tangible benefits include improving brand reputation and customer loyalty, as well as staff morale.

So what are you waiting for? It’s time for all of us to do Ourbit for the environment. Let’s go green.
