Cutting Down on Waste: 5 Days of Using a Reusable Cup Join me as I embark on a challenge to reduce waste by using a reusable cup for the next five days. Discover the benefits of this simple change and learn about hotel practices, such as wrapping apples in cellophane, which contribute to unnecessary waste. #ReducingWaste #ReusableCupChallenge #SustainableLiving #EcoFriendly #HotelPractices #WasteReduction #EnvironmentalImpact #Sustainability #ConsciousConsumer #GoGreen

Today is #EarthDay, where we take an extra moment to remember the importance of environmental conservation of the planet we call our home, encouraging joint action for a world where we can all live well and within planetary boundaries. At FMO, our Facility Services department helps us to operate in the #circulareconomy as much as possible. One critical way we do this is by carefully sorting and disposing all of our waste, which helps to prevent the incineration of valuable raw materials. This way, we contribute to #SDG12: Responsible Consumption and Production.   More importantly, most of the materials that we call “waste” are not actually waste in true sense. They are just “waste” for a particular purpose. The different materials still have a lot of potential to be reused or given a new life.   That's why we sort our "waste" into several categories: organic, orange peel, coffee grounds, paper, plastics & drink packs, glass, writing utensils (pens & markers), batteries, and e-waste. Of our waste streams, just 13% (2023) is residual waste. The other 87% is sorted into recyclable and circular material streams. Through measures like these, we've been able to reduce our total waste from 140 kg per FTE in 2019 to just 45 kg per FTE in 2023, of which plastic waste went from 6kg to 2.35 kg per FTE in the same time period.   By looking closely at our waste streams, we can better manage the procurement of materials. Through concrete steps like these, we can jointly reduce our (plastic) waste for the planet's health. #EarthDay2024 #ClimateAction #ActOnClimate

Hey everyone! Happy Environmental Day! 🌍🌿 Let's take a moment to appreciate our beautiful planet and think about how to make a difference daily. Here are some easy, impactful changes we can all make: Thrift Shopping: Find treasures while reducing waste! Buying second-hand clothes and items means less production of new stuff, and you get unique pieces with a story. Win-win!, Not only that we can thrift and share our favorite clothes which we have kept for a long time Sustainable Living: It's all about consuming less and choosing things that last. Buy items built to endure, so we don't have to replace them often. Quality over quantity! Public Transportation: Hop on a bus, train, or bike. It reduces your carbon footprint and often gets you there just as fast, without the parking hassle. Minimal Cosmetics: Do we need that many beauty products? Simplifying our routines saves money and reduces plastic waste and harmful chemicals. We can shift to soap nuggets or shampoo bars from normal shampoo, which will surprisingly reduce the hectic number of empty shampoo bottles we are throwing away. Fewer Shoes: Seriously, how many pairs do we wear regularly? Let's focus on versatile, durable footwear. Less clutter, more space, and a happier planet. Changing towards menstrual cups: A game-changer for those who menstruate! Switching to menstrual cups reduces the waste from disposable products, saves money in the long run, and is better for your body. Less Impact: Every little bit counts. Whether it's using a reusable water bottle, cutting down on single-use plastics, or being mindful of our energy use, small actions add up to big changes. Let's commit to making these small shifts in our daily lives for a greener, healthier Earth. Every effort counts, and together, we can create a sustainable future. Cheers to making a positive impact! 🌱💚 #EnvironmentalDay #Thrifting #SustainableLiving #PublicTransport #Minimalism #EcoFriendly #IITM 4o
