That's exaclty what i do. I work for a trucking company so i make decisions which truck goes where so i always do the math to have the truck run the least amount of miles with minimum idling. In the office i reuse both sides of paper becuase we go through about 400 pieces per day. I also try to email as much as possible insted of faxing.

My actions at work impact the world much much more than at home.
Sorry to change the subject to work life but it's the same as home life but it benefits the company
