FM is hosting an Energy Challenge in the month of February. Have an idea that will save electricity, natural gas, or fuel? We are looking for everyone in this organization to come up with great ideas for changes that will reduce our overall energy consumption.
All employees across FM will be asked to help generate big and small ideas that we will then implement throughout the month of February. Prizes and awards for the best and most unique ideas as well as participation prizes will be extended to those departments that demonstrate particular commitment to this challenge. Watch for Green Team members at your staff meetings in January to explain the challenge and help you generate ideas to conserve energy in our work environment. We will also be installing sensors to turn off computer monitors when you’re not at your workstation. This could help to save 10-20% of your workstation’s energy use every day.
How can you save energy in February?
Turn off lights.
Turn in your space heater for a free blanket.
Unplug cell phone chargers when not in use.
Turn off equipment when not in use.
Turn the key—be idle-free in your car or truck.
Take the bus to work.
Carpool with a buddy to work or to a job or meeting on campus.
