Bringing energy efficiency to the workplace and beyond

Global Action Plan work with Investec as part of their environment champion program. To raise awareness in the company of the amount of paper the use they built a tower of paper in the main atrium.
Global Action Plan is a charity which works with businesses and other organisations to reduce energy consumption and waste production through behavioural change. Since 1997 it has trained and motivated 1,200 people in 69 organisations as 'Environment Champions', indirectly influencing over 86,000 employees. The work has promoted team working, and resulted in estimated reductions of 4.4 GWh/year energy and 1,600 tonnes/year waste for participating organisations. Similar behavioural change outside the workplace is also widely reported.
