The behaviors
Some employees show strong awareness of the value of environmental
sustainability and responsibility
Some sustainable practices are common and well-established
but...
More internal information/communication needed

Commitments to the streets
The savings
- February 16th, 2006:
10% to 40% less in energy consumption
with an estimated reduction of the CO2 emission
of 600 Kg
- November, 2006:
40% less in Bacci Ridolfi secondary School of
