Green Silver is a moving target but we are moving step by step to green our office. I recently presented our entire staff with designer commuter mugs to keep at work and use all day. I think we can save about 2,500 paper and plastic cups a year by using these cups when we head out for lunch or coffee. Plus, they are so pretty! We also hung individual towels in our bathrooms and kitchen. I think we will save about 30,000 paper towels a year using real towels. I know these are baby steps, but at least we are on the right track!

30,000 paper towels saved
- Pretty and Green!

My boyfriend and I are also making the transition from bottled water to reusable mugs. I try and recycle packaging material (probably the bulk of my business waste) as much as possible. Not only does it help the environment, but it saves $ too!
