Increase recycling in your office as well as your home, and consider GreenPrint, a software that prevents one-line pages and saves web sites and documents as PDFs. Decrease waste through paperless e-fax, double-sided printing, and by buying post consumer waste (PCW) paper made from used paper products.
On a computer, look for the gold, silver, or bronze stamp of the Electronic Product Environmental Assessment Tool (EPEAT). Computers with a stamp, assigned by the Green Electronics Council, are ranked highly for environmental attributes. Other office options include Eureka Recycling’s Recycled Products Co-op and the online shop thegreenoffice.com, which carries recycled content alternatives for nearly every office product.
