== We are GREEN at Long Life Lighting! ==
At Long Life Lighting, we pride ourselves on being responsible global citizens. We endeavour to always have a positive impact on our planet and our communities. We have created an environmental policy that attempts to minimise our waste, reduce our greenhouse gas emissions and recycle as much as possible.

Greenhouse gas emissions

* 50% of our electricity comes from sustainable resources, such as wind, solar and hydro electricity.
* All greenhouse gas emissions from staff vehicles are offset by the planting of trees through GreenfleetOpens in new window.
* Strategies to minimise power, water and gas are always implemented

Recycling

* All recyclable paper, cardboard, glass, plastic, and metals from our offices are processed for recycling.
* All office paper waste is used on both sides
* Paper, newspaper and catalogues are shredded and used to cushion our orders.
* All photocopier and printer ink cartridges are recycled.

Energy

* Computers standby after 1 min of being inactive
* 90% of equipment is turned off at the switch at the end of every day and on weekend
* LED lighting and natural lighting is used in our office.
* Lighting in our office is wired so that sections can be turned on and off as needed
* Light switches have “turn off” reminder stickers!
* De-lamping (removing some lamps) has been implemented to reduce energy use
