Energize Earth Day

Metro At Work

  • Bike to work, car pool, use mass transit, or walk.
  • Encourage your company to sign up for the Green Lights and Energy Star energy-saving programs offered by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. Contact EPA at 888.STAR.YES (888.782.7937).
  • Assemble a team of co-workers to conduct an energy audit at your workplace. Look for lights and equipment needlessly left on, drafty windows and doors you could insulate, ineffici ent thermostat settings, and other energy-wasters. Make recommendations for improvements that will save energy and money.
  • Put up an Earth Day bulletin board during April that offers employees new energy-saving tips each week.
  • Link your company's Web page to those that offer energy-saving and environment friendly tips. Here are just a few: Earth Share at www.earthshare.org; the official Earth Day site at www.earthday.net; EPA's Green Lights and Energy Star Web pages at www.epa.gov/greenlights/ and www.epa.gov/energystar/; and the energy efficiency and renewable energy network page of the U.S. Department of Energy at www.eren.doe.gov.
