Resource Smart Business Program: Work Smarter, Not Harder
Weekly Smart Tips
Greetings!

At last, the pies have been devoured, the long road trips are over, and it is time for the weekly Smart Tips.  This week's tips will help you keep it together on your way to the end of the holiday season and the year.

Energy Efficiency  

Did you know that on average, Coloradans recycle 23% less waste than the rest of the Country?  During the holidays, don't forget to do your part to keep recyclable goods out of the waste stream.  Remember, for every job created by the disposal of one ton of landfill waste, 10 jobs recycling that same "waste" can be created.  Give the gift of less green house gases to the Earth this year by remembering to recycle during the holidays.

Worksite Wellness

 

Having trouble controlling portion size or your delicious holiday treat intake after Thanksgiving? Before taking on another plate of food or after sampling that extra piece of pie, go out for a glass of water.  That glass of water will surpress your appetite and help you resist overindulging at the office or at home this year.

 


Overall Sustainability 

 

Make sure your wrapping paper is recyclable and supports local artist this year by picking up Local First "Wrap It" wrapping paper. This locally inspired wrapping paper can be picked up all over downtown Durango and includes six full sized sheets printed on Durango Herald newspaper.  For more information and to see the works of art, click here.
