AN HOUR A WEEK COULD HELP SAVE THE PLANET |
 |
One hour a week - it doesn't sound like much, but that's all the time

environment.
The suggestion comes as business owners from across the region reveal
they are struggling to find the time to consider the effect their company
is having on the environment.

quick and easy-to-implement measures that can help the environment and,
most importantly from a commercial perspective save money.
