How GREEN was the event?
A “green event” can be thought of as one that does not harm the environment by practicing environment friendly techniques and reducing carbon emissions.
At the launch of the “eco-chic” lingerie range, Triumph International took the additional step by not installing any air–conditioners for the event. Instead, electric fans were used. Research in Japan showed that using air-conditioners for two hours a day every day would produce 62kg of carbon in a year. That’s enough to damage the ozone layer already!
Also, the plants that were used as part of the decoration helped to reduce carbon dioxide and cool the surrounding air. Even the guest invitations were all sent electronically to reduce the use of paper. What had happen?
At the launch of the new “ecochic” lingerie, Triumph International requested all staff and invited guests to pledge to one of the seven eco-friendly tips:
- Drink water from the tap
- Use electric fan instead of air – con
- Switch off electricity from the mains
- Bring your own bags to the grocery stores
- Use natural products to clean your home
- Do full loads of laundry and set the rinse to ‘cold’
- Turn off the tap when not in use
So, pledge to carry out the seven tips above, and consider eco-friendly clothing as one way to start your own journey in making a positive change to the world! E |
