You recycle, turn off your lights, and even watch what you consume, but have you considered the environmental impact of your home office or business? Here are some ideas, as Earth Day is quickly approaching, how to make green by being green in your work environment:

1. GreenPrint helps reduce printing of extraneous pages. (You know those last pages that you really don’t need?) Reduce ink use and paper use. . Licensing is a one-time fee. Many large corporations and schools are using this service. According to the Company, numerous small businesses, local governments and school are using the program. In addition, they have made inroads into UK, Europe, Australia and Japan.

Free to homeowners.

2. Consider widening your margins, and print on both sides of the paper to reduce the amount of paper used. For other paper reduction advice, see “Information on Recycling Paper” furnished by the WasteCap of Massachusetts.
