making business more sustainable

Here are a number of things you can think about and put into practice that make your business more sustainable. First think about transport and how you can get people to work on sustainable options, can you help with nearby accommodation for your workers so they can walk or cycle to work. Can public transport be encouraged where it is helpful. Next think about recycling this covers plastic, electronics, furniture, buildings and paper. Can you ensure all your plastic is recycled? Where are all your supplies coming from and how sustainable are they? Can you find somewhere to help recycle your electronics? What about the long term use of your office and furniture, can this be chosen to be more sustainable? Think about the food you are eating and where it's coming from , how environmentally friendly are the farming methods and how is it package. How are you cleaning things and what is the impact of the chemicals you are using? Feel free to add to these thoughts.
