Supports businesses doing all they can to become green. In our company we ensure that recycling bins are at every desk, and in every communal area, we encourage our employees to “turn off the power” including lights, computers at night, etc. We have and continue to install light sensors throughout our offices to turn lights off automatically when no one is in the room. And we print our newspapers on as much recycled newsprint as is required by law, plus more if we are able (depending on suppliers). Finally, we continue to develop our website, to expand our print publishing from once a week, to daily on line.
