Here are just a few of the ways VerticalResponse is going green, we know it’s a journey, NOT a destination.
- We don’t use plastic utensils.
- We don’t drink from plastic cups.
- We use VR water bottles made out of recycled plastic.
- We recycle glass, cans and plastics and mixed paper.
- We buy Fair trade coffee.
- All printed materials and paper are recycled 20% post-consumer,
- We often use eco-friendly supplies, ordering local and from green businesses
- We use reusable bags instead of paper bags.
- We recycle used batteries.
- We offer commuter benefits for people who take public transportation.
- When we print docs we print double-sided.
- We try to keep our lights off during the day, it’s nice and bright in here anyway!
- We turn our computers off at the end of the day. It saves more energy than sleep mode.
