This episode is all about sustainable business and how you can inject sustainability into your business every day. The thing is, sustainability is confusing as fuck and a survey I read recently said that 85% of business owners want to be more sustainable but have no idea where to start. So if you are unsure where to even begin, why not start with this podcast episode. We’ll be going through 10, easy, baby steps to get you started on bringing a little bit of sustainability into your business. In this episode I share:  -       The surprisingly high number of business owners who don't know how to start injecting sustainability into their business -       What the hell business sustainability actually is -       How to do carbon measurement and offsetting for your business -       Things to look out for if using an offsetting company -       Why tree planting is not really offsetting -       Why your business should go paperless -       Easy ways to automate turning off devices and power in your business -       Why shipping products is actually not as sustainable as you might think -       Some sustainable ways you can ship products -       Examples of disposable office supplies that you can get sustainable versions of -       Why you should be measuring your office waste -       How to do an office compost -       Why you should probably not make business merch -       How to focus on cutting down unnecessary purchases and expenses -       Ways you can minimise the impact of your business travel -       The people based policy you must have in place in your business -      The next stage after doing these 10 steps  Key Quotes “No business is truly sustainable because so much of what we do is out of our hands.” “Offsetting is not a silver bullet but it is an excellent first step.” “How many times have you driven through the CBD and you can see all these offices with their lights still on.” More information: I referenced a study by NZ Post that compares different shipping materials and shows what is best.
