Good for the Office, Good for the Earth 
 
"Of all the wonders of nature, a tree in summer is perhaps the most remarkable; with the possible exception of a moose singing Embraceable You in spats" Woody Allen

 
MCR cares passionately about the environment, and we do our very best at all times to adhere to eco-friendly practices, policies, and procedures.  
 
Ten Ways MCR Conserves Resources
  1.  We turn off lights, computers, monitors, lights, fax and copy machines, and printers at night.
  2. We set our computers and monitors to "Go to Sleep" mode during short periods of inactivity.
  3. We receive faxes and other documents electronically. They are not typically printed; we route them via email or Spitfire software for approval, review, and archiving. We save emails, faxes, proposals, and agreements in Microsoft CRM.
  4. We receive and send electronic invoices, statements, and other documents when possible.
  5. We use Outlook Tasks for "To Do" lists vs. yellow sticky notes. If we really must write something, we do it on the back of used printer paper.
  6. We use online collaboration tools such as Outlook Calendar, Microsoft OneNote, and Microsoft CRM.
  7. We purchase office supplies made from recycled materials, and we recycle or donate used office electronics such as cell phones & computers.
  8. We use Virtual Meetings to eliminate many trips to client sites. Several employees work from home, eliminating the waste of gas and vehicle emissions. 
  9. All MCR Employees have access to the office computers from home, which eliminates the need to print out and take documents home.
  10.  We use regular coffee mugs, not paper cups. When our mugs are not full of coffee, we drink tap water instead of bottled.
