Change the World

I bought a book called Change the World for Ten Bucks, 50 ways to make a difference written by “We Are What We Do” (a nonprofit group). I thought I would share a few of the ideas that can be used in the workplace that can make a big difference.

#1 Take Public Transit: “A bus Carries the same number of people as 50 cars.”

#2 Recycle your Mobile Phone and Computer: “9.3 million mobile phones are replaced in Canada every year.” Go to www.pitch-in.ca to find a collection center nearest you.

#3 Use a mug not a disposable Cup: “Canadians use over 8 billion disposable cups per year.”

#4 Use both sides of EVERY piece of paper: “It’s estimated that 170 million trees are cut down every year for the paper that is used in Canadian offices.”

The best part is there are 46 more ways to change the world in this fantastick book!!
