Are People Search Sites Going Green?
I’ve started to notice something quite interesting in the people search industry.
Whitepages.com, which is a very popular people search website has changed its redesign to green.
Upon further investigation, I’ve discovered they went green on July 2010 by doing the following things:
They purchased ecological compost bins
They got separate bins for the plastic bags. So plastic bags in one bin, all other things in another bin.
They got recycled paper towels
I was pretty amazed by WhitePages .
Caring for the environment should be one of the top priorities of every people search company, not just WhitePages.
The eco-trend is clearly spreading and smaller people search sites like FinderMind also took some steps toward on a greener way .
Darren, the creator of Findermind, moved the file hosting to a environment friendly company and started to segregate waste for recycling
We’re still waiting for other sites to announce their commitment to going green and protecting the environment.
If you have a company and want to make it green, here are some quick tips:
Celebrate Earth Day and become a member of the Earth Day movement .
Earth Day is considered to be the most significant day for environmental activists .
Make your company join this wonderful movement!
You can start using hybrid vehicles for transportation .
(If your company is big enough, that is) Small companies probably don’t have that many transport needs, but hybrid cars can be bought by giant companies and can add a lot to the popularity of such a company.
Celebrate the green color! Add more green things to your office! Green is a wonderful color indeed which has the potential to bring you more relaxation and peace.
Consult yourself with an expert. Hire an expert to propose some replacements to your office material. You can get many green replacements for some of the material you have in your office.
Going green is great! Become a part of the movement!
