Shaw keeps getting greener
Our home is Canada. Keeping our country beautiful
by making smarter environmental choices is just one
way we're reducing our overall ecological impact.
Water:
Building facility upgrades and retrofits to reduce water
consumption are being installed. Site management practices to
control and monitor water use are in place and being tested.
Energy:
Shaw is one of Canada's largest users of Bullfrog Power;
100% renewable energy source. Our introduction of route optimization
software for our fleet vehicles has resulted in a reduction of at least
25% in distance travelled per service order, which in turn has helped
to reduce fuel consumption and greenhouse gas emissions.
Waste: The National Distribution Centre (NDC) is at the forefront
of our waste reduction initiatives. In 2012 almost 1.5M lbs of material
was redirected from landfills for recycling or reuse by the
NDC. Planning for electronic stewardship is a key step in our
waste management activities.
