Our Bit To Save The Environment

Environment is one of the top priorities in Webberz. Saving and Conserving are done on a continuous basis. Following steps have been taken to save the environment:

Task	Wood Saved
The day-to-day paper based notices have been replaced with the e-notices. This was a huge step as all the faculty and staff in New York, Egypt and India were trained to use computers. They were trained to open email accounts, send emails, receive and enact on them. The usual practise of signing notices was done away with. The usual practise of taking prints of email will be also finished. From 1st January, 2008 all paper based correspondance would be completey finished.	1000 kgs
Every person is required to submit monthly estimates and reports every month end. The practise has been completely done away with using google docs.	100 Kgs
The lesson plans are using 5000 kg of equivalent wood which have also been partially replaced with CDs and E-Plans. Most of them have been replaced but the remaining would be replaced by 2008 end.	1000 kgs
No cheques would be issued to any staff or faculty. Electronic trasfers have been implemented. The saving is also indirect in terms of person wasting petrol while going to the bank to deposit money. The paperwork of the Bank has also been reduced.	Directly 2 Kgs
The bank statements have been finished as Webberz would simply be getting and storing soft copies of the bank transactions.	2 kgs
All newspapers/magazines have been replaced with e-newspapers in all the branches worldwide.	500 kgs
Paper collection days have been made under which all the used paper, test papers, external mail are collected. This paper is dense in fiber and can be burnt to produce heat. Being low in density this has to be briquetted and further used to fire earthen clay ovens. The sister-restaurants in New York and Amritsar are using the briquetted material to save more wood.	10,000 kgs
All new institutes would be environment friendly. There would be natural ventilation and sunlight. Glass bricks are being used where possible. A model of IN-ASR-03 (Lawrence Road Branch, Amritsar, India) has been constructed keeping natural sunlight in mind. Dark colors have been avoided to provide better reflection and minimisation of airconditioning.	Estimate yet to be calculated.
Grand Total	12,604 kgs/year

Assuming the net weight of a tree = 500 kgs this would be approximately 25 trees/year.
