Go Green at the Office Part 1

Real Estate Agent with Keller Williams Exclusive Properties

Go Green at Work!

  • Go paperless when possible.
  • Think before you print.
  • Request to be removed from catalogs, newsletters, and junk mail lists. The average American receives 41 pounds of junk mail each year. Save trees! visit the National Do Not Mail list at www.directmail.com
  • Post employee manuals and similar material online instead of distributing paper. It's also easier to update the information when you keep it online.
  • Use nontoxic cleaning products.
  • Brighten your office or cubicle with plants. They absorb indoor pollution.
  • Recycle toner/ink cartridges and buy remanufactured ones. You'll help keep approx. 2.5 lbs of metal and plastic out of landfills and conserve half a gallon of oil.

I've used the National Do Not Mail list and it works!  Everyone should take a moment to do this.

Thanks for the support on Going Green, Carl! I just started Active Rain and am getting the hang of this.

Hi Audra, I was just wondering if you ever thought of starting an entire green real estate company...or empire for that matter.  ;)
