There’s an Edge ethic of wise resource use. Even our office location shows it: to reduce car dependency, we chose to be within easy reach of the SeaBus, Coast Mountain Bus routes, Skytrain stops and West Coast Express.
The brick walls of Edgequarters were laid in 1934, so our occupancy helps repurpose old Gastown. That’s recycling on a large scale. Mindful recycling of all our office supplies follows naturally, as does a practice of double-sided photocopying, paperless document exchange, and the use of energy-efficient lighting. And every year we become more sophisticated with virtual meetings that do the planet a good turn while sparing ourselves and our clients travel time and fuel costs.
Our small carbon footprint is just one way we show our understanding of environmental issues and the passion for a better and greener world that we have shared, as proud event sponsors, with groups such as Friends of Live Earth and 30 Days of Sustainability.
We’re known for prizing, protecting and sustaining the investment of human energy that goes into knowledge assets. For change agents, it’s the ultimate sustainability mentality. So our clients engage us to weave green policy into their long-term plans. It’s only natural.
