So This Is Christmas

Merry Christmas is such an infectious feeling I like to feel that way all year around.

So if you are visiting just before Christmas, just after Christmas or even here on Christmas day I am sure you will find something of interest for you and in the spirit of Christmas.

It may be said that Christmas is no longer a celebration but this must be spoken by people that have never had trouble closing their eyes on Christmas Eve in an expectation of what maybe left for them on the carpet under the tree.

I continue to look forward to the surprise on my Grandchild's faces to this day at Christmas events.

Merry Christmas - Merry Christmas - Merry Christmas

Practical Tips On How To Make Your Office Design Environment Friendly

By Alyson Dixon

With more pollution in the atmosphere and fast deforestation, people have woken up to the critical situation and are gearing up towards conserving nature. The latest development in the universal go-green movement is the use of green office furniture, and this has excellent potential to make companies eco-friendly.

Setting up of modular offices can go a long way in preservation of nature. Much less material is required to set up such offices, and therefore they help check the cutting of trees. Apart from being eco friendly, it also lessens the company's expenditure. Modular offices are quite inexpensive, and their rents are lesser as they take up lesser floor area.

Buying recycled or used office furniture is another way of contributing to the environment and making an office eco-friendly. This type of furniture is suitable for any kind of office and requires only slight alterations to look as good as new. The economic recession has resulted in a lot of organizations going out of business, and they are now selling off their furniture at surprisingly low prices, and this chance can be lapped up by firms looking to set up a new office. Using such furniture protects trees from being cut down and mines from being drilled to build new furniture.

Even brand new furniture can be green furniture if you keep a few things in mind. The furniture materials must be reusable and must have been manufactured locally so that moving them from one destination to another would not lead to heavy emissions.

Ensure that poisonous chemicals such as CFCs and HCFCs, which cause immense damage to the ozone layer, have not been made use of in the production of foams. The wood for the products that you buy must not have come from delicate forest ecosystems. Finally, purchasing more furniture than you need must be avoided and you must be economical in your use of resources.
