Identify some quick wins to reduce your consumption

Quick wins refer to easy, low-cost actions that deliver immediate or near-term benefits. As they require minimal planning or investment, it makes them a great starting point for settings with limited time and budget. Quick wins can also lay the foundation for more comprehensive, long-term environmental initiatives.

This action requires you to identify unnecessary or wasteful consumption of uniform, furniture, cleaning products, books and textbooks, decorations, sports equipment, art and classroom supplies, and any other products that you use in your day to day operations.

By focusing on small, visible actions across consumption hotspots, you will be able to show immediate results, motivating your community to support and engage in future sustainability efforts. This approach can result in cost savings that can then be reinvested into further sustainability projects.

This is a fantastic way to set a positive example to your staff and learners, influencing behaviours and values to foster a culture of sustainability.
