Blog Action Day
Rohan October 15th, 2007
15th October, 2007 marks the first ever Blog Action Day, which encourages bloggers the world over to unite for a common cause by posting a blog entry about a common theme. The inaugural theme for Blog Action Day is the environment.
And whilst I don’t particularly go out of my way to care for the environment - I’m not a greenie - there are certainly a number of small things I do (and I encourage others to do) that I hope makes a difference. Things like:
- I recycle the paper I print on (excluding invoices or client-sensitive information of course) by using the reverse side of the paper as notepaper;
- I turn off my PC’s monitor &/or CPU when not being used for an extended period of time;
- I send and receive virtual faxes, rather than paper ones;
- I send as much correspondence as I can via email, rather than through the postal service;
- I have energy efficient lighting in my office.
I think I’ll also look at another bin in the office, to separate the recyclable rubbish (which is most of the stuff that ends up in the office bin) from the normal waste.
I guess it’s a start.
