Occupancy sensors

Use laptops w/docking station vrs. desk top computer set to sleep during off hours

Use solar tube sky lights

There are so many, what type of business facility are you trying to save energy with, office, warehouse, fleet?

Answer 2

By negotiating a LOW COST energy rate, and by raising prices faster than our politicians enact regulations.

Answer 3

Entrepreneurs can make a big dent in energy demand, for instance, just by using window film to reduce summer heat, and by installing improved lighting, better thermostats and occupancy sensors in bathrooms, offices and storerooms.

U n everyone in ur office can follow these points. Bcoz u know we all begin from home n then reach office:-).

these steps should be taken to fight global warming:

*Look for energy qualified products

*Heating cooling conditioners should be tuned well once a year.

*Seal n insulate ur home.

*Reduce n reuse n recycle every thing u use.

*Grow more plants.

*Use water efficiently.

*Use ur personal vehicle as less as possible n when u cant walk, train or buss can be best options as u can imagine- 50 persons driving their personal cars would emit more polluting gases n waste more fuel than a single bus carrying them.

*Maintain ur vehicles well so that they stay fuel efficient.

All u need to do is to spread this message to everyone u possibly can.

U can arrange some seminar or make an announcement or send group mails or give prints to all ur subordinates or colleagues.

Good luck, nice to c a good entrepreneur, our buisness study books seem to be influenced from people-im remembering the social responsibilities of business-topic:)
