I&TS usage for one year ( a percentage of the entire campus ) 1,620,000 pages

Energy Conservation: One page is equivalent to running a 60W bulb for 0.3 hours 1,620,000 pages is equivalent to running a 60W bulb for 486,000 hours Trees: One page uses 0.001% of a tree 1,620,000 pages uses 1620% of a tree…better than 16 trees Pollution: One page produces 8.5 grams of carbon dioxide 1,620,000 pages produces 13,770,000 grams of carbon dioxide
6
What can Siena do? In Short….. PRINT LESS or NOT AT ALL
7
How can that be accomplished? ______________________________ “Computers will save paper!” … anonymous Use electronic copies of files more effectively: Instead of printing a copy for everyone, place a copy on a web site or network space and project it. People can print it if they want to. When browsing, save a file instead of printing it. Print only what you absolutely need. Print Training : Duplex printing Print only the page you want in a multi-page document Proofread your document on-screen instead of using printouts (print preview)
8
Who should partake of this? Everyone! Departments should encourage discretion when printing Public labs need print quotas
9
How much waste can be avoided? This can vary greatly depending upon the cooperation of everyone on campus The best way to judge is to actually implement it for a year
10
We don’t want to prevent you from printing what you need… …just the waste.
