Implement Recycling

Believe it or not, but in 2019, many businesses still don’t recycle on a daily basis.

Consult An Energy Specialist

Our next tip is for those who are a little overwhelmed by the entire process and aren’t sure where to start. Business consultants that specialise in the energy sector can help you to integrate environmental issues into your business processes and establish environmental departments. If you’ve never seen this type of service before, you can take a look at ScottMadden.com as an example. On their website, you can see all the different areas that they focus on (from retail energy to nuclear generation). Although you’ll need to pay for this service, it will be worth it in the long run as you show your business off in this new light.

Replace Appliances

If you want to make your organisation more environmentally friendly, you need to think about replacing any old appliances with energy efficient ones. If you run a business that has a lot of equipment, then this might be quite costly, but it will be a really effective way of improving your energy efficiency and making an impact on saving the planet. Take a look online at the best equipment and its energy efficiency rating before buying any more equipment.

Communicate Issues To Customers

Our final tip for those who want to make their organisation more environmentally friendly is to make sure that your customers are on board with the changes.

Think about how these new changes could improve your brand image and show customers just how much you care about the environment. Consider your communications strategy and make sure that your customers are doing their bit at the same time.
