Clean and Green |

Whether at home
or at work, it is always time for a little
"spring cleaning" to implement more
environmentally practices into your home and
clear out excess clutter.
Remember to use
Less-Toxic Cleaning Alternatives
around the house to limit your family's exposure
to harmful chemicals in your household
environment.

At Work...
- Manila folders can be turned every which way
and reused with a new label.
- Remember to
buy items that can be reused such as tape
dispensers.
- Watch the
amount of emails you are printing. Can the
same information be transferred to a document and printed using less paper? The
same goes for copying information from the
web.
- Use double-sided
copying as your default!
- Send in the
“GET OFF
JUNK MAIL CARD” and contact any of
the catalog companies or businesses
advertising for work-related courses and
remove yourself from their lists, or change
onto electronic catologs.
- Use your
bulletin boards for relaying important
office information.
Use a grease board
for meeting agendas. Review the amount of
information you are copying and distributing
for meetings. Cut back whenever feasible.
- Keep a
recycle bin by every desk! Placing
garbage and recycle side-by-side makes
everyone's job job easier.

At Home...
|
Have a wonderful
time cleaning and remember that the easiest way
to avoid messy spring cleaning extravaganzas and
junk taking over your living spaces is to
- REDUCE WASTE
- REUSE WHAT
YOU CAN
- RECYCLE!
