Back to Community Written on 07-Jul-2009 by RecyecologyWe spend long hours in the office, and although that at home we are used to recycle, when we get into the office... what? forget about it all? We were thinking, is there any way we can transform our office into an eco-office or at least a bit more green?
We found some things that can make our offices look a bit different, see if you agree with them:
I am sure there are plenty of other things we could do in the office to take better care of the environment.
Pasamos largas horas en la oficina, y aunque en casa reciclamos, llegamos a la oficina y qué? Se nos olvidó todo? Estábamos pensando, hay alguna manera de transformar nuestra oficina en un lugar ecológico, o al menos un poco más "verde"?
Se nos han ocurrido algunas ideas para hacer la vida en la oficina un poco diferente, a ver si estás de acuerdo:
Seguro que hay más cosas que podríamos hacer para cuidar más del medio ambiente.

Consume frutas y verduras de temporada. En internet encuentras multitud de empresas que te envían tu cesta ecológica a casa periódicamente.

Deberíamos instalar el aire acondicionado o la calefacción con termostato, y esto sirve tanto para el trabajo como para la casa. Así no andaríamos encendiendo y apagando cada dos por tres.
We should install auto regulated air conditioning and heating, and this can be used either at home or in the office. That way we wouldn´t need to switch on and off all the time.

Cerrar bien todas las canillas y arreglarlas si pierden mucha agua... es increíble la cantidad de agua que gastamos por día!
Turn off all the taps and fix them if they waste water... it´s incredible the amount of water that we waste everyday without realizing it!

Thank you for this posting. I am leading an effort to educate 7000 employees across 19 states in the USA about sustainability. Any advice would be appreciated.

Here's a post about some things we did in our office in the last couple of months.

Credit to Karen Smith, our office manager for making some good connections to charities ....
We also recycle cans, bottles, plastic, newspapers/magazines, etc. and take turns (by month) for being responsible for getting it all to the recycling center ... so everyone's involved.

here i leave another tip:
Share copies of documents for meetings or use programs like Powerpoint to project meeting documents onto a screen for paperless presentations.
Dejo otro consejo:
Compartir las copias de los documentos que serán utilizados en reuniones, o usar programas como Powerpoint, para poder proyectar los documentos de la reunión en una pantalla, para así no gastar tantos papeles.
