Earth Day Memo:

Earth Day Conservation Tips

White + Warren is comprised of a surprisingly small group of people working in a showroom overlooking Bryant Park in New York City. We’re a tight-knit group and we’re very committed to being as eco-friendly as possible here in the office. For a little reminder (and a little encouragement), our fearless green leader Susan White sent out a timely company-wide email this morning… and we thought we’d share it with you!

Utilities:

  • Never leave the light on in the kitchen when you leave.
  • Turn your radio off at the end of the day.
  • Turn your lights off when you leave your office.
  • If you don’t have a blackberry, turn off your computer every night.
  • If you do, at least turn the screen off.
  • Never leave the steamer or anything else that is uses electricity plugged in.
  • Turn off your computer on Friday before you leave.

Supplies:

  • The more we review on screen the less post its, pens, pencils and paper we will use.
  • Do not print emails, if you think you need a record save them on a disc, or back them up.
  • Do not print reports, create a pdf and review on screen.

Postage:

  • Pay bills on line.
  • Do not mail, e-mail.
  • Any king of electronic file should never be sent in the mail or via FedEx.

HAPPY EARTH DAY!!

An Earth Day Dedication

Last evening as I was coming home, disposable bottle of water in tow, my doorman — as sort of his own survey — asked me why I chose to buy water. When I said I really just buy it for the bottle and then refill and reuse the bottles with filtered tap water he was very pleased. Then, all in ten minutes, I learned of his concern for the preservation of the Chesapeake Bay, waste management by the meatpacking industry, and the questionable effects of New York City spending millions of dollars on improving dog parks while people are going hungry on the streets. To sum up, he expressed his concern about the sustainability of our current system, and how we can go on as we are if we aren’t planning for a livable environment even in our own lifetimes. So today I dedicate all my own Earth Day efforts to Curtis, the fine night-time door attendant at my building. And when I told him I was going to blog about our conversation for Earth Day, he told me no problem, he already had it covered in his own blog.
