Climate Week

So this week we are all trying to change one thing in our lives as part of Climate Week.  As an organisation ReZolve is always trying to lower our impact on the environment.  We were delighted that a Business Link report found the organisation to be carbon negative but recognise that there is always more that we can do as an organisation and as individuals.  We will bring you a few updates on what our staff have been doing and how they found it.

Our HR manager Becky Hosken and our RE:STORE Administrator Steve Hill have decided to car share as they live fairly close to each other and despite not working at the same site, they do both travel to Bodmin!  They have been taking turns to drive and will be doing so for the rest of the week, hoping to save 112 miles of travel in just this week alone. 

What's even better is that they plan to continue once the week is over.  Becky estimates that if they continue to car share they could save approximately £600 each in a year!!  Not to mention the fuel emissions they are cutting and the wear and tear on their cars.  There are some downsides, in that on the days that they aren't driving they can't get out and about if they need to; but this can be counteracted with forward planning. 

Another plus that Becky has noticed is being more focussed by having a definite leaving time.  Both Steve and Becky recognise that it won't be practical to car share every day but they both see the sense in doing it when they can.
