The freelancing experts at FreelanceSwitch have a whopping 29 simple ways freelancers can consider the environment in their home sweet home office, beyond the usual suspects.

One of our favorite tips is persuading your clients to join One Percent for the Planet and donate a portion of their profits to environmental organizations:

Whenever you have the chance encourage clients to make environmentalism part of their brands. Show them that this can be an asset to their business rather than a burden, and that consumers react very positively to companies that take environmental positions.

Other faves: Uploading files instead of snail-mailing them on disc, using virtual meetings, and taking on some pro bono work for a charity or non-profit. ::FreelanceSwitch
