Staff at Newcastle International Airport have outdone goals that had been set to cut their energy use, permitting them to minimize their carbon footprint by 5%.

Under the CRC Energy Efficiency Scheme, the airport has to report annually on its pollution levels and airport employers are wishing that the cost savings they have chose to make this year will place them highly on the league table of energy efficient companies to be released by the Department of Energy and Climate Change towards the end of the year.

The airport introduced several measures to reduce its emissions including investing in energy efficiency equipment, holding workshops to motivate staff to reduce their energy usage and tracking energy use on site.

Businesses of all sizes can benefit from environmental consultancy services like those made available from Apollo Enviro. Even though smaller companies are not needed to report on their emissions, all businesses can cut their carbon footprint and do their part for the environment, as well as maybe even saving money on their energy charges.
