Here we give some green tips that you can do at work, so no matter how busy you are, you still can participate in helping to make the world a healthier place.

 

1. Go paperless when possible
Think before you print. Consider if the file should be kept digital or printed. This habit will reduce the use of paper. If you want to print some files to check or read, consider to reuse paper on the back side.
