Earth day, living Green

Today our staff is discussing all the ways we try to live GREEN.

Like reducing the amount of garbage we throw out. Recycling everything that can be. Reusing items instead of throwing them away or donating them, so someone else can make use of it.

Some ride their bike as much as possible to reduce driving.

Buying from local markets where produce is grown locally is also a great way to live GREEN.

Making sure our city is clean and never littering!

Open the curtains instead of turning on the lights during the day.

The list goes on and on.

Yesterday was Earth Day and by everyone getting together we can all make a difference!

How did you spend your Earth Day?

The Green Servpro.caTeam

How the Servpro.caTeam does Green! This week is Earth week and although our Team is overall Green I'd like to share some of what and how we do Green!

No Print Rule - Being an online company we can practice our no print rule easily. All our files are on databases and online so we have no need to print and no need for messy paper filled filling cabinets.

Reduce-Reuse- Recycle! We encourage the use of recycling bins and also have a destination for paper than can be reused as scrap sheets for those quick notes!

Reusable Coffee thermoses - We enjoy our starbucks coffees and/or Tim Horton's! Our staff has reusable thermoses that can be refilled at their favorite cafes!. Great way to save on the paper cup mess.

Computers - Laptops are our computer source and it uses less power than a desktop computer. We also ensure that all computers are turned off and unplugged every night!

Staying in for lunch - Not only is it the healthy choice but using reusable Tupperware and cutlery is a great way to be Green!

Lights off! - No one in the room? Then neither should the lights be. Keep curtains open on sunny days a well to have natural light, light the rooms.

These are just some of the ways the Servpro.caTeam does Green!
