You Don’t Have To Hug A TreeTo Save A Tree.
Just receive and pay your Comcast bill online using Ecobill™—the paperless way to pay.
Ecobill is fast, convenient and hassle-free. It eliminates paper bills, envelopes
and paying for stamps. All of which make your life easier, your wallet fatter, and
our planet greener.
Make a world of difference with Ecobill.By receiving and paying your bill online, every year your household can:
• Save 6.6 pounds of paper
• Save .079 trees
• Conserve 4.5 gallons of gasoline that would be used to mail bills, statements and payments
• Avoid the release of 65 gallons of wastewater into the environment
• Avoid producing 171 pounds of greenhouse emissions
Start saving money, time and trees today.Sign up for Ecobill at comcast.com/ecobill.
Big results begin with simple acts. Here are just a few easy ways we can help our environment every day:
Switch your lights: If every family in the US made the switch to CFL bulbs, we’d reduce CO2 emissions by more than 90 billion pounds. That’s like taking a million cars off the road!
Unplug your cell phone charger when not in use: You’ll save 15 pounds of CO2
emissions each year.
Make your next computer a laptop: It’ll consume up to 90% less energy than a desktop model.
Shop at your local farmers market: It reduces emissions, fuel consumption and unnecessary traffic. Plus, the food’s fresher!
Get out of the car: Replace just one five-mile car trip each week with a walk or a bike ride and you’ll eliminate around 200 pounds of CO2 emissions each year.
Huge strides start with small steps.

WhAT WE ARE DOinG
»» Upgraded RSF lights to high efficiency, high output fluorescent lamps and transformers which will remove 132,000 pounds of CO2 from the air and save 252,000 KW hours of electricity annually.
»» Installed energy-saving Carbon Monoxide sensors to control six exhaust fans in the garage, saving $17,000 each year and the equivalent of the electricity used in about 14 homes per year.
»» Switched to Vaska, an eco-friendly detergent, requiring fewer rinse cycles for the 13,000 towels washed per week at RSF. Estimated to reduce water consumption by 400,000 gallons of water per year.
»» Upgraded all 70 RSF showers to low flow shower heads that use 30% less water.
to Green Cal Rec Sports»» Installed synthetic turf at Underhill Field using rubber pellets and a drain mat made from recycled truck and car tires. Using an artificial field eliminates herbicide use and reduces water use.
»» We’re now using zero-emission electric trucks to avoid Greenhouse gas emissions on the 90 trips per month for WorkFit’s
mobile workouts.
»» RSF electricity use has been reduced to 17.2% below 1989/90 levels.
»» Employed goats to clear 5 acres of brush behind the Golden Bear
Rec Center to create an eco-friendly fire break, saving
$1300 with nearly zero-emissions.

At Berkeley Rep our Green Committee advances our agenda for responsible environmental behavior. We promote mass transit, ridesharing and carpooling among audiences. Our audiences recycle and compost at the Theatre. We now compost four yards a week and recycle more than ever. We’ve replaced many incandescent bulbs with compact fluorescents or leds. We use fsc lumber in our scene shop. Check us out at berkeleyrep.org/about/greenroom.

It Isn’t “just” a busIness card.A business card is often the first impression you get to make, and it can say a lot more about you than what’s printed on it. Like:
“I’m serious about what I do.”
“I want you to remember me.”
“I care about the environment.”
Printed on durable, recycled “double-thick” paper or kraft board, Greenerprinter business cards always send the right message.
Send us your design, or create one on our site. Starting at just $29.50 for 250 cards.
You can also use our certified green printing services for everything from postcards to recyclable banners. And we’re conveniently located right here in Berkeley.
