- Buy computers, printers, scanners and copiers that bear the federal government's Energy Star® label. The label guarantees that the machine uses electricity efficiently.
- Buy multi-function machines rather than stand-alone copiers, faxes and scanners.
- Save energy by setting your computer to "sleep" mode when you leave for an extended period of time.
- Recycling paper reduces water use, energy, and pollution.
- Use compact fluorescent lamps to save energy and cut pollution.
- For three copies or less, use the printer; for more, use the copier.
