Green Team: Agenda for Next Meeting


Hi greenies!


Our next meeting will be Friday, February 20, at 10 a.m. Kari will be joining by phone, so I suggest we hold the meeting in the green room.


Here is a tentative agenda (most of which is from Kari). Feel free to alter at will:


  • more plates to go in the dishwasher than paper plates to go in the trash? Maybe someone could find at a garage sale or on freecycle.

  • a recycle box for cardboard in the lunch room (for all those freezer meals that come out of their containers)? Or can that go in the container that Erin B got a while back? If so, maybe a sign above the trash cans reminding people what they can recycle instead.

  • replacing the paper/foam cups

  • carpooling space

  • a fundraiser to but some earth friendlier light bulbs

  • rechargeable batteries and a battery charger

  • buy recycled paper (paper towels, post-its, etc.) instead of what we get now and pay for the difference between what we get and what we could get

  • promote the bike to work day

  • plan something for Earth Day

  • bathrooms should be on motion activated sensors so that the lights go off after a period of inactivity (about 30 minutes)
