Make the 1 Degree Difference (What you can do)

• Switch off all lights, computers, copiers and other non-essential equipment when not in use including after office hours at night and during weekends. E.g. Photocopiers left on standby mode throughout the night use energy equivalent to printing 5,000 copies. (Checklist of things to switch off to be stuck on door to remind last person leaving)
• Enable energy-saving features on all computers and copiers.
• Put computer monitors to sleep rather than use screen savers as DEFAULT.
  Adjust your air conditioning temperature settings to 25 degrees or warmer every time you're feeling cold. Encourage the end-users not to wear thick clothings to work unnecessary.
