Green Offices Project

At 8.30pm on Saturday 27 March 2010, Servcorp will again show our support for Earth Hour and turn off the lights on all our floors around the world.

All Servcorp locations around the world have pledged their support for Earth Hour. We are one of the only global supporters of Earth Hour to participate in every Earth Hour to date.

Background

The Green Offices Project

News

We have a strong commitment to supporting the environmental and social communities in which we operate. We acknowledge the seriousness of climate change and the need for businesses to become sustainable to ensure the protection of the environment from further damage.

History

Servcorp began the Green Offices Project as an initiative to create a positive environmental impact.

The Green Offices Project plants a tree for every Virtual Office setup through the new online interface. The Servcorp Forest already covers an area greater than the area covered by our combined international office spaces.

Virtual Offices, which are inherently environmentally friendly, continue to be a driving force behind the Green Offices Project. All of Servcorp’s services now subscribe to the philosophy of the Green Offices Project.

The Servcorp Green Offices Project aims to initiate more environmental sustainability within Servcorp and the businesses of our clients. We aim to reduce our carbon emissions, offset our existing footprint and educate our teams and clients about improving their day-to-day impact on the environment. We have three distinct areas of focus; Reduce, Offset and Educate.

We aim to reduce, reuse and recycle within our workplaces; from reducing the amount of electricity that is consumed to recycling paper.

We offset some of our emissions by planting trees.

We strive to educate our team, clients and business partners about the many ways in which they can reduce and offset their day-to-day impact on the environment.

Copenhagen Summit: World leaders gathered in Copenhagen to determine how the world will deal with climate change. Their choice was simple - Earth or climate change. Although the "meaningful agreement" formed from the summit has a long way to go, we are encouraged by the progress world leaders have made to show they choose Earth!
