The Green Bits
How we're helping the environment
We've done the easy stuff, like install energy saving light bulbs throughout. We've even found uses for even more efficient LED bulbs, in place of fluorescents. Working from home cuts my commuting to zero, and I've signed up to make this website carbon neutral with COCO2. If you're a new client, ask about making your site carbon neutral as part of the package. Click the logo for more details.
We've gone that bit further, and installed solar panels for our heating and hot water in August 2007. See our solar heating blog for more information as we get used to using it.
Also see this article from PCPro about switching things off, and get reminder stickers for your PC.
We don't use pesticides in our garden, and wildlife is returning to it, starting with butterflies, and hedgehogs have been hibernating in it. We're not so keen on the mice, but have three natural predators (called Oscar, Tinker and Scratch!) to keep them under control.
