In today’s modern world, sustainable living is more important than ever. Premier VendGroup is committed to eco-friendly practices inside and outside of your Los Angeles break room. The good news is that there are many easy ways to make a difference.
Today, we want to share some simple yet impactful ways you can go green.
6 Tips on Sustainable Living
How can you limit your impact on the planet? Here are a few ideas you can implement to practice sustainable living:
1. Eat Sustainably
Consider reducing your meat consumption. Meat requires a lot of energy and space to produce. Therefore, adding more plant-based foods to your diet can help limit your environmental impact. You could even give “Meatless Mondays” a try.
You can also eat sustainably at work. Look for fresh salads, fruits, and other plant-based options in your Anaheim micro-market. Or, pick up a plant-based snack from your office pantry or Los Angeles vending machine.
2. Go Paperless in the Workplace
Switching to a paperless office can reduce waste. Instead of printing, use digital documents. Also, use paperless communication tools when possible.
When you do use paper, be sure to recycle. You can also use paper that’s FSC-certified. That means it was made using sustainable practices.
3. Donate or Give Away Unneeded Items
Instead of throwing away items you no longer need, why not donate them to charity? Or, give them away to someone who can use them. Donations of clothing and furniture can help thrift shops.
You can also check with your local library, as they may receive donations of books. This sustainable living tip helps reduce waste and supports those in need.
On the same note, you can also help by buying from second-hand shops. This way, you give discarded items new life. Plus, when you buy second-hand items, you reduce waste and transport costs.
4. Drive Less
Another sustainable living tip is to drive only when necessary. For shorter trips, try walking or biking. Ride-sharing or carpooling are great options for lengthier trips or commuting to the office. Using public transportation whenever possible is another way to reduce your carbon footprint.
5. Use a Dishwasher
Did you know that using a dishwasher can save water? People often use more water when washing dishes by hand than a dishwasher would. Plus, today’s modern dishwashers are efficient. They also use less energy and soap than handwashing.
6. Promoting Sustainable Living in Our Break Room Services
At Premier VendGroup, we make sustainable living an important part of our break room services. How? Here are a few ways:
- We use the latest technology to ensure our route drivers use the shortest routes. This cuts down on driving time and helps reduce emissions.
- We promote the use of sustainable bottleless water coolers. Add our water filtration service to your Long Beach office pantry or micro-market. This service can help cut down on single-use plastic water bottles.
- Try our bean-to-cup coffee machines to eliminate single-use coffee pods or fresh packs.
- Our Los Angeles vending machines use LED lighting and are energy-efficient.
