How to reduce climate change
We know that climate change is one of the most serious challenges facing society, and that every company has an important role to play in tackling it. We spend a lot of time at work so it’s important to bring greener habits from home into the workplace. There are a surprising number of things that can be done to make meeting a deadline or finishing off a project more environmentally friendly and help reduce our nine to five carbon footprints. And don’t forget to spread the word with your colleagues, so they’re reducing theirs too.
From a technology perspective, remote working and collaboration technologies are now more commonplace and also have additional productivity benefits. Flying from Glasgow to London, for example, generates six times as much carbon dioxide as going by train. Taking the train also saves you time, as there are no lengthy check-in queues or security checks, and you can work more easily on the train, so traveling time is more productive. And let's not forget that flying business class is one of the most carbon-intensive ways to travel.
Easy Ways to reduce your CO2 Emissions
Aim to reduce your CO2 emissions from business travel by managing the absolute need to travel and by providing alternative means of communication, such as video conferencing. Active Digital has a range of video conferencing solutions which are the next best thing to face-to-face meetings and the benefits are not just environmental but economic too. For larger corporations, in particular, installing unlimited video-conferencing facilities can result in major savings in annual travel costs, as well as reduced CO2 emissions.
