You might not realize it, but today’s a pretty significant milestone for organizations with a commitment to carrying out business in an eco-friendly fashion. Today is Earth Day, and this year it’s the 40th Anniversary of the annual event.

Since it began in the US in 1970, this celebration of all things environmental has become a rallying point for concerned citizens of all nations. From its position on the fringes, Earth Day has become a mainstream event, an opportunity for politicians and companies to show off their green credentials. And as a business with a genuine focus on recycling, reusing and upgrading, we like to mark the event. As we, amongst others, have shown, green business is good business. It makes sense to reuse and upgrade, whether we’re talking about computers, waste materials or land. The savings in terms of cost and resources are significant, and it’s an opportunity to do both the right thing and the smart thing.
