| SOLUTIONONE'S LIVE GREEN PLAN... it's our environment to protect |
| It should come as no surprise that environmental responsibility is an imperative business issue. Day after day in many offices, paper is squandered, toner is wasted and printers are inefficiently used. They're costly practices that, over time, take a measurable toll on the environment. |
|
General Environmental Facts!
- Paper is the leading source of waste in the office. In fact, the average office worker uses 10,000 sheets of paper a year - that's approximately 1.2 trees. - EPA study
- A Fortune 500 company could save 800 tons of paper in a year by setting duplex printing as a default - at an annual of $7.7M. - Internal HP Case Study
- Approximately 3 quarts of oil are consumed in the production of a single new toner cartridge.
