However, in a narrow sense, green office refers to the use of recyclable products that save resources and reduce the generation and emission of pollutants in office activities. This is an important part of the national energy conservation and emission reduction action.

An evaluation from IBM shows that only by encouraging employees to turn off equipment and lighting when not needed, the company will save $6.5438+0.78 million a year, which is equivalent to reducing the emissions of 50,000 vehicles.
