Environmental Best Practice Guidelines for Rotary Clubs
-
Use e-mail for written communications where possible both for communications
between club members, with other clubs and with District Officers. Try to
reduce the use of letters in envelopes.
-
Publish members' e-mail addresses in district directories.
-
Only print when genuinely required. Where printed papers are required, print
double-sided wherever possible.
-
If additional meetings are needed, try holding them by e-mail. The disciplines
required will be different but it can be done and can be time saving.
-
Enable club officers to produce club stationery on their own PCs rather than
having to use pre-printed stationery.
-
Try to minimise the environmental impact of club events without detracting from
the quality of experience. Give thought to choice of materials, location,
transport arrangements etc.
-
Adopt the principle of 'Reduce, Re-use, Recycle' to materials usage.
-
Encourage members to reduce personal environmental impact by adoption of
environmental criteria in personal decision making.
