Bloomberg is eager to be a part of rolls for reducing global warming issue. Eco-friendly building is one of their aspects. In their reports, Bloomberg will reduce its carbon foot print 50% by 2013 from its 2007 baseline through energy efficiency, increased renewable resource use and aggressive waste reduction strategies. They have offices in New York, SanFrancisco, London and Tokyo and are going to work for green design and energy conservation at all brunches.
The office floors don't have any partition or wall so that the air circulation run well, which leads to save the energy. The shades are automatically controlled to open and close to use sun light.
The light and monitors of computer are automatically shut down if they are not used. Bloomberg says 2.2 million kWh a year saves by turning off unneeded lights and 7.6 million kWh a year saved by setting monitors to sleep mode.
Also, in the building there are broadcasting studio using low-power lighting, which saves about 500,000kWh, compared with standard bulbs. They purchase the energy from Green Power Renewable Energy Credits (RECs) in the U.S.
There are very efficient activities for the environment.
Every 3 blocks of desks has recycle dust boxes so that people can throw away easily in the eco friendly way.
Bloomberg encourages employees to commute with eco friendly way, such as bikes. An employee who commutes by bike receives extra money!
In the office, there are some snack places. They make the area as eco friendly as possible. For example, cups are made of potato. Bloomberg says 81% of beverages bulk dispensed and 72% food locally sourced globally.
This building shows well about Bloomberg's policy, BGREEN.
