Tackling climate change in your workplace will bring a large number of benefits: |

Save money - simple measures such as switching appliances off overnight, turning off monitors not in use, and printing double sided – can cut energy costs by 10%
Improve your reputation - many customers and consumers now only buy from, or invest in, companies with environmentally friendly policies and practices
