Three must-do green acts
Turn off printers after office hours
Switching off printers after office hours is better than keeping them in ‘sleep mode’. The energy saved for a night is sufficient for printing 700 sheets.
Check your pocket before laundry
Remove all stuff, especially pens, in your pocket before sending your working clothes to the laundry. If clothes are stained by ink, the whole load has to be washed again, using stronger detergent and more water in order to remove stains.
Reduce plastic wrapping for medical supplies
Many medical supplies are individually packed. To reduce the use of plastic bags and save time for unpacking a large amount of sterile supplies before operations, departments may thoroughly review the medical procedures and add a clause of ‘putting medical supplies of the same medical procedure in one package’ in the procurement specification.
