Environment

We all play a role in protecting the environment. At Cairns Sharehouse we are working toward more sustainable environmental practices.

We encourage:

Saving water

• Installation of water saving toilet systems
• Fitting water efficient shower heads
• Taking shorter showers

Saving energy

• Use of energy efficient light bulbs
• Installing push button timed switch for community lighting
• Turning lights/fans off when not in rooms
• Pedal power – we hire and buy secondhand bikes (to recycle) and provide bike racks for safe bike storage.

Reducing waste

• Using the designated recycling bins
• Recycling all glass & paper products in our office
• Recycling our toner ink cartridges
• Purchasing only recycled paper
• Eco friendly bag use so when buying groceries, say NO to PLASTIC BAGS.
