World Environment Day – Foodprint

Reducing my FOODprint

It is World Environment Day and I have been looking at more ways to create a sustainable working environment.

Lunches and snacks are a large source of waste for many people. Reducing your Foodprint is a an easy way to help the environment.

  • Made too much Bolognese? Freeze half of it for another day.
  • Weigh out rice and pasta
  • Freeze half a loaf of bread and use up the other half first

These are just a few simple hints and tips to help reduce your Foodprint.

The Sustainable Web

Sustainable web design

i am interested in the concept of creating web sites which are less harmful to the environment. The most damaging aspect of some designs is the size and amount of images on a site.

Higher emissions of CO2 are produced by large image dominated sites, due to more loading and processing. If you must have images on your site then reducing the original size and optimising them for the web is essential.

Choosing a web host which uses sustainable energy such as solar or wind power for hosting your site can be another step towards your green credentials.
