RESPECT GOES FURTHER THAN INDIVIDUALS

At AvisoGroup, we take environmental stewardship and sustainability seriously. We strive to consume less, recycle and re-use, and support our Nova Scotian economy by purchasing and procuring local goods and services whenever possible. We will contribute to reducing global waste and increased efficiencies. Little bits make a huge difference and collectively, we will make an impact for a healthier future.

We promise to:

• utilize meeting technology or teleconferencing when possible to reduce travel-related emissions and save transit time
• turn off lights and electronics when not using to conserve energy
• minimize the use of natural resources, including water consumption
• print only when necessary, use recycled paper and products, and share more electronically via secure transmission
• use PDF function to send and receive faxes
• recycle paper and use double-sided features on printers when possible
• lower heat temperature at night
• install energy efficient lighting and heating systems, and use EcoLogo or Energy Star appliances
• have plants to combat CO2
• compost and use bio-degradable products where possible
• say, "NO" to plastic: bags, cutlery, cups, straws. Every little bit makes a difference
• ride our bikes and walk when possible. Car-share or public transportation is encouraged.
• use re-usable bags and say "no" to packaging
• donate unused hardware and goods for 2nd life use
• waste less, re-use more
• continue volunteer efforts to contribute to our region's growth and economic prosperity. Organizations include: Manning Innovation Awards Atlantic Chapter, Junior Achievement, Business for the Arts, and KidSport.
• buy locally and use local services, when possible to support a sustainable and viable Nova Scotian economy. Fewer miles travelled means less energy consumed to deliver and jobs stay home.
