Save the Earth and save money at your office.

4.- Replace your regular light bulbs with compact fluorescent light bulbs. According to the federal government, if every American home replaced just one light bulb with an Energy Star approved compact fluorescent bulb (CFL), the United States would save enough energy to light more than 2.5 million homes for a year and prevent greenhouse gases equivalent to the emissions of nearly 800,000 cars. Using motion sensor lighting is also a good idea.

5.- Turn off your computer when your work is done. Even if you really want to go home to rest, try to turn off your computer before leaving your office. This may reduce the energy used by 50%.

6.- Recycle! There is a lot of waste in offices that can be recycled. And remember, computer equipment must be recycled too. There is a link to a list of items that can be recycled at the end of this article.

Tree planting is an effective way to help the environment and offset the amount of carbon dioxide that your business emits. The American Forests website offers a calculator that helps you determine your carbon emissions and tells you how many trees you must plant to offset that amount. They also plant the trees. Each tree costs just $1. The link to their website is provided at the end of this article.

Please do your part to help the environment. Small things can make a big difference for our Earth. Even one person can make a difference because you might also inspire a friend or family member to do the same, and our effort will be increased.

Back in late 1992, MS Access hit the streets. About that time the company I managed needed new software to handle their growing client base and I decided to try this new product. I had little difficulty writing and adapting a database to suit us and discovered a hidden talent for programming. A business was born. With business studies and 25 years of management experience in three different countries under my belt, I could offer a unique combination of skills and my customers agreed. From these humble beginnings my software 'invoiceit' emerged in 1999 and has since been taken to 49 states (hello Wyoming, won't you join us?), all across Canada and more than 70 other countries. From the very beginning the program included cashbook accounting, the simplest form of keeping financial business records. The Dictionary.com defines 'cashbook' as "A 'book' in which to record money received and paid out". For 'book' substitute 'simple software' and that's what I'm about. Now I have published Simple Accounting, an inexpensive spreadsheet solution which even you can master. For just $14.95 it costs less than a takeout meal!
