Reduce the Carbon Footprint of Your Office

Enable your power management - so your computer and monitor shut down. 
Do you need to print?- Consider saving a file on your computer, in a flash drive or emailing it. 
Double-side print - Saves paper too.
Can you carpool or transit or bike to work?  See above. 
Open up - If you have windows you can open, use them to intelligently save energy.
Turn ‘em off - Only use the lights you need.  If you’re using your computer you may not need your office lights on too.
Occupancy sensors - Shut off lights in unused rooms.  Better, get your building to install occupancy sensors.
Bring your lunch - Or walk to the local eatery instead of driving.
