Borrow Before I Buy

Why buy something I will only use once or a few times if someone nearby has it for me to borrow, and why not share something I have that someone may only need a few times a year?

Understand My Water Footprint

Each of us has a water footprint, directly linked to our daily activities as well as the water required in the production of things we use each day. Understanding our water use is important for a healthy planet. I will calculate my water footprint and look for a few ways I can reduce consumption or waste, then share what I learned on the feed.

    Instead of using plastic glasses, we also encourage our teams to use the little cups provided for our department. Mainly for those ones who drinks coffee several times per day, at the end of the month it is a great contribution for our environment.

    As a local challenge we encourage people for using only the stairs and not the elevator, if we need to go 1 or 2 floors (up or down). Besides the fact it helps to save electricity it is also a healthy habit.

    What did you learn about your water footprint and what are you going to do to reduce and be aware of the water you use?

    I have learned that even though we think we save water, we always find ways of saving more. Simple actions, maintenance and even some "intelligent" devices may help us to improve it.

    One of the busiest avenues in Brazil (Avenida Paulista) is free of cars or motorcycles on Sundays, allowing families to enjoy it and encouraging people to think more about the environment and quality of life.

    This week we visited a foundry supplier in Santa Catarina, south of Brazil, that generates a good amount of the power electricity used at the plant. A good example of hydro electricity power generation.

      excellent alternative to avoiding the use of plastic cups, in addition to having the possibility of keeping the coffee warm due to the mug having the characteristic of being thermal

    This eco-challenge is so positive, keeping in our mind / habits that during an event these days, I picked the lids of the bottles to properly discharge it for special recycling.

    For helping the environment when I am at any hotel, I leave the message the bedroom does not need to be cleaned. In this way the towels are used for a couple of days, avoiding it to be washed daily.
