Environmental Awareness

FiRM has successfully implemented many initiatives such as:

  • Increased use of environmentally preferred paper and subsequent reduction in environmentally unfriendly paper for the division's printers and photocopiers
  • Exclusive use of remanufactured printer cartridges
  • Significant reduction in the use of disposable plates, cups and cuttlery
  • Comprehensive recycling program including paper, cardboard, printer cartridges, bottles, cans, plastics and old IT equipment
  • The division seeks to reduce paper usage by encouraging double-sided printing and reuse of once used paper
  • The division's computers have been configured to utilise power saving features
  • The division's environmental assessment showed an overall performance result which bettered the University average in 8 out of 9 categories of measurement
