2) using sustainable cleaning supplies: every professional work place should be clean. you can help the earth by usung sustainable cleaning supplies. 

3) turn off the lights: turning off the lights is a great way to reduce energy and practice sustainability. if you implement these things in the work place it can make a hufe difference

5) recylce: recycling during work is a great way to practice sustainability
