I am doing my part to be GREEN and with the help of all my couples, we are changing the way things are done to better our environment!
FIRST: All of my couples meetings are presented by electronic media with my iPad. Everything from my ceremony handbook to all the materials my couples need for their license, changing the brides name, vendor referrals and all the additional information I present to my couple. I then present my couple with the same information in a DVD for their use at home. Of course, paper form is still available for couples that don’t use computers and it’s also available online.
My couples ceremony is also presented using the iPad in a beautiful leather bound portfolio.
RESULT: After checking the facts, it looks like I will save ONE tree every two years in paper consumption alone not counting the impact of the printer, toner, etc.
SECOND: After extensive research AND until we can safely dispose of giant lithium batteries in hybrids into the earth after they die, I now drive the VW-TDI, CLEAN CAR OF THE YEAR for three years in a row. Not to mention that it’s next to zero in pollutants and emissions, my fuel mileage has gone from around 25 MPG to nearly 50 MPG!
Rather than jump to meet with couples anytime, I now ask them to help me by scheduling as many meetings together as possible, thus saving even more cars on the road and fuel. I admit that sitting at Starbucks for 4-5 hours can be a little hard on the backside, but I know we’re doing our part!
More news coming soon!
