Tenants can assist in the building efforts to reduce building operating costs through energy conservation. Please make a special effort to educate your employees about the importance of using energy wisely.
Following are examples of how your employees can help in the building efforts to reduce energy costs:
Window treatments should be closed during those times when there is direct sun (including weekends).
Employees should be reminded to turn off all lights, computers, copiers, etc., when not in use or before leaving for the evening or weekend.
Print on both the front and the back of printed pages.
Purchase recycled paper and other office supplies.
