We are all expected to ‘do our bit’. This sentiment seems to acknowledge that although our individual contribution maybe small, it is a duty. However, the obligation on businesses for accountability is much greater, increasingly formalised and growing all the time.

How can we help make your task easier?

If you have a green story to tell that will enhance your reputation we have a track record of helping clients achieve the very best impact from their credentials. 3 recent projects illustrate a clear ability to popularise a difficult subject area and deliver exceptional results.

With increasing pace, new products and services make ‘environmentally friendly’ purchasing options easier to adopt because of narrower price premiums to standard products. This includes ‘green’ options for some of the goods and services that agencies often buy on your behalf.

We are well versed to guide you through the bewildering range of environmentally friendly options that you can buy in to, what they really mean and the ‘kite mark’ type logo’s/claims that go with them.

What is your view on ECF’s, PEFC’s and FSC? Carbon off-setting print projects is seen as having merit by some, but only as an empty label by others. Have you weighed up the options? Please talk to us and we will be happy to advise.

Working with EDF Energy has brought us fascinating insight to the spectacular volumes of energy wasted daily across the land, and how easy it can be to start saving energy, money and the environment. Did you know that a typical business could make savings in energy costs of up to 20% with little or no investment?

This inspired us to propose that EDF Energy offer customers a comprehensive interactive CD based resource to build their own energy saving campaigns. They agreed. It’s called the Energy Efficiency Toolkit. Clear advice covers the campaign from start to finish with innovative tools and templates that help you to ‘get there’ more easily.

It has won a Green Apple Award and more than 2000 requested copies are in circulation with major customers. If your company is interested in saving energy, saving the planet and enjoying better PR along the way why not take a closer look by ordering a copy at
