Blog 1. Use EPEAT when purchasing new desktops, laptops and monitors
EPEAT (the Electronic Product Environmental Assessment Tool) will help you to choose the most environmentally respectful electronic products on the market. More than 1000 products are registered and aren’t harder on the budget.
For more information about purchasing policies, read the article “Responsible IT Purchasing”
2. Turn off monitors and PCs at night
Turning off your PCs at night can save up to 60% of your IT energy consumption costs. For organizations that need the ability to remotely apply updates overnight, power management solutions are available.
For more information about power management, read the article series on power management solutions.
3. Reduce employee travel by conducting virtual meetings
Air travel is one of the most significant contributions to green house gas emissions. Virtual meeting services such as GoToMeeting, Webex, and Windows Live Meeting are extremely popular and easy to use and provide an interactive platform for on-line meetings that can reduce that amount of travel for your employees.
4. Reduce paper consumption
The average office employee prints 6,000 pages a year. Printing less can be accomplished in many ways, from simply printing double-sided and using Ecofont, to using services such as EchoSign that allow you to conduct business electronically.
5. Get a Green IT Assessment or Green Office Audit
Establish your baseline and get recommendations that will save energy and money. Knowing your baseline will allow you to measure your efforts and engage employees. Terrabytes Consulting, Strategic Sustainability Consulting and other sustainability-focused service providers offer affordable services no matter how big your organization is.

It is a good timberland 6 inch boots thing that the God Who made us is not impatient with people like me with my timberland shoe company orchid. He lovingly thinks about us all the time timberland boots and he even temporarily gave up His heavenly home and his timberland traditional handsewn hold on diety to die for the sins of timberland mens custom world nearly 2,000 years ago. His death back then covered the sins of every cheap timberland boots person who will ever live. He then rose to life after three mens timberland chukka days and ever since has wanted us to accept His gracious act by loving Him and also those around us. When we do this, we will see people in a totally different timberland womens premium boots light — one that redefines what it means to be ugly or different or weird or strange. Instead, we see people with ugly timberland shoes store problems in whom God is working so they can bloom beautifully — just like I now see in my orchids whether they are “lumps” or blossoms! On a certain timberland work shoes day at a certain hour, we will pull into the station. Bands will be playing and flags waving. Once we get there, so many wonderful dreams will come true and the pieces of our timberland wheat shoes lives will fit together like a completed jigsaw puzzle. How restlessly we pace the aisles, *ing the minutes for timberland for you loitering --waiting, waiting, waiting for the station. HYD
