Do you shred/recyle paper ? We're progressively becoming a paperless office. Our games that we produce are also eco friendly as you don't need paper to market them, or reduce your overall paper marketing as it can all be done online. Combination of game, viral marketing, recycled paper flyers and banner advertisements work really well.. we're trying to sign up a few nightclubs as they spend a fortune on flyers, with an online presence and some great ways to bring in the clubbers to their website to find out about events and DJs is a sure way to reduce their overall marketing spend, with the addition of SMS alerts on their mobile phones. Not good for printers (Sorry Ray!) but we do encourage them to use recyled flyers instead.

You have a great point there. We designed a huge poster for a nightclub. Very modern and trendy.

Ray offers a certified grade of recycled material to print on

I never did get around to setting up my solar panel business http://www.poweredbysolar.co.uk (maybe next year, or a good offer for my domain and let someone else do the graft). Do you do all of the surveyors report / structural engineering stuff before placing solar panels on a house/school? Prices of solar panels still seem to high.

We shred everything we can paperwise which then gets recycled, however as an online company we are trying to utilise that to the most and become paperless. Sometimes it seems like a never ending task as there is always someone (normally HMRC or bank) that have to send things via paper!!

We are also using some company () to create a viral game as a form of marketing.

Also in the process of setting up to to be carbon neutral as we can be. Not an easy task in hosting but we are working on it. And to coin a phrase, every little helps!

We are green (or will be ) because of the products we offer With 8 million disposable nappies being dumped in landfills every day in the UK, and each child having approx 6,000 nappy changes during infancy, a single shopper making the decision to 'go cloth' can make a big impact on the planet

We also stock organic cotton clothing, and baby products- all free of the chemicals that damage the earth and the skin.

Packaging is also largely recycled and recyclable, with the use of recycled and recyclable bags, shredded paper, and the re-use of boxes where possible

Same goes for me... thanks FYP!
