The Green Guru: Your Friendly Office Energy-Efficiency Auditor!

— part of the AUNE "Carbon Counts: You Can Too!" series

Who?

If you work at AUNE and have a computer, desk or office, then the Green Guru service is for YOU. The Green Guru is focusing on office and work space efficiency. See the Energy-Saving Tips page, for starters!

What?

Rachel Thompson has been recruited and trained as AUNE's Green Guru for the '09-'10 school year. The Office Energy-Efficiency Audit service that Rachel provides is designed to help all of us reduce and limit the carbon dioxide (CO2) and other greenhouse gas emissions from our individual work spaces. Rachel is ready to visit your desk to get you started.

Why?

Because you will win prizes and recognition! And because Antioch University New England has made a commitment to being carbon neutral by 2020, we're not wasting any time getting started on meeting that goal. Although we can't see it directly, resources are consumed to light up our work space and to run our computers and other electronic devices. Producing electricity creates CO2 and other greenhouse gas emissions that directly contribute to global warming. One of the easiest ways we can move toward reducing our CO2 output is by making small, easy (we promise) changes in our office areas.

How?

It's easier than you think! Start with the tips and resources on these pages. Then, contact Rachel with any questions you may have and to schedule your one-on-one Office Energy-Efficiency Audit.
