Sustainability in Carbondale
Sustainability is a state of mind in Otak’s Carbondale, Colorado office. Four out of five staffers bike or walk to work whenever possible and staff recycle everything they can. They are always looking for ways to reduce the volume of what they use so they replaced paper plates with dishes purchased at a local second-hand store, and traded plastic cutlery for silverware. Instead of paper towels in the restroom, they each have a terry towel in the color of their choice. They convert scrap paper into notepads, and use compact fluorescent bulbs in overhead lighting. And instead of air conditioning, they let the mountain air cool the office every morning.
