Environmental Encouragement - useful sites

The issue of environmentally friendly business practices is an issue being embraced by many sectors of Australia business and industry. GPET encourages all RTPs to contribute to the reduction of their carbon footprint. The Environmental Encouragement Award is aimed at recognising those RTPs who are undertaking some form of meaningful steps to reduce their carbon footprint. This may include environmentally friendly printing processes; reducing carbon emissions; and development and implementation of an environmental policy within your organisation, just to name a few.

Below are a number of websites that may help you identify areas within your organisation and business practices that can be improved.
