This morning when I was doing my daily routine of reading and replying emails, there was 1 particular signature that really caught my eye. It’s about printing your emails. It is also an interesting signature by the way. Looks familiar?? I know you might have seen it somewhere before, but I still want to be part of the campaign, to contribute something to our environment.
P Please consider the environment before printing this e-mail
The tree icon you are referring to is not a pic – it’s a character out of a font called webdings which is a standard font on most computers. So as long as you can use rich text or html in your signatures you are fine.
Firefox seem unable to displays the tree (Capital P in font webding) correctly
Occasionally I do print out the whole long thread email from MS Outlook. You know it could be long, especially when it is of a long thread emails. It will have all signatures (some time fancy order), email addresses, and spaces between the emails. 2-3 emails could easliy took up 2 -3 pages. This signature also reminds you not to print useless emails or jokes from your colleagues for your kids or spouse 
Save them into your thumbdrive or show them through your computer enough la.
How to participate?
You can participate on this campaign easily. Just copy and paste them in your email/forum signature or on your favourite social networking website. (it’s not graphic, but font only). It looks simple, but imagine if at least all bloggers take part on do this, the impact will be great.
So what else can you do to be ‘green’?
-
Switch off your wireless network, your computer and other electrical devices when it is not in use. Save electricity and it will indirectly lessen the carbon emission from diesel power plant
-
No, do not throw away your broken or faulty electrical devices. Recycle them. HP and dell has their own recycle stations. For example, your notebook battery does contain hazardous stuffs
-
Reduce printing of dowloaded ebooks, do your studies online instead, whenever possible

Why do you need to be green? A lot
