Tenant Tips (continued)
- Use email rather than snail mail or fax to save paper
- Use regular plates/cups/silverware rather than disposable. Dish washing can be contracted through the cleaning company
- Install energy efficient hand dryers in private restrooms to reduce paper towel waste
- Recycle all printer/toner cartridges - check the manufacturer's website for return instructions
- Avoid using a cover page when faxing to save paper and toner on both ends
- Print in Black and White when possible - color ink is harsher on the environment
- Keep plants in the office - they cool and clean the air
- Maximize use of day lighting through your space
- Change faucet aerators to low flow and/or replace with auto sensors
- Change private restroom toilet paper dispensers to coreless
- Appoint corporate staff member to educate employees on sustainability efforts
