This Action Profile outlines the benefits to High Chelmer Managed Shopping Centre of reviewing its environmental practices and policies to reduce waste and divert material from landfill.
The strategies implemented resulted in 180 tonnes of cardboard and 6.1 tonnes of polythene being diverted from landfill in the first full year of operation.
To see how you can improve your shopping centre, also consider requesting EN711R - ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT TOOLKIT FOR MANAGED SHOPPING CENTRES - which enables centre management to provide services for their tenants that reduce waste and the use of utilities, so helping shopping centres to achieve their environmental objectives and targets.
The toolkit provides a single point of reference for all the information needed to plan and implement a successful campaign. It includes a step-by-step guide to running a campaign, and provides the tools to help overcome barriers to improving environmental performance.
