Staff Christmas Message
Dear all,
As Christmas is approaching, and many get into the Yuletide spirit, we are all looking forward to a well-earned break and a festive chance to recharge and see our friends and loved ones.
During this time, please remain mindful of the sustainability of the season and its effects on your planet. Consider small, positive changes to make this year's and future years' celebrations one of joy for all
Leaving the office:
As you leave your office, remember to be mindful of energy usage over the break. To do this you can:
- turn off all lights.
- shut any windows.
- turn off appliances at the plugs (including computers, printers, and monitors).
- make sure to take any food that you own in the fridges home, preventing food waste.
- E-mail bms.schedules@warwick.ac.ukLink opens in a new window if you know the dates that any buildings or large spaces will be empty over the Christmas period, so that the heating can be turned down.
