This is the second in a new series of tips extracted from the forthcoming Green Business Bible e-book:

I'm a great advocate of 80/20 thinking when it comes to measuring environmental performance. The uncertainties in the natural world and in the economy are so high that more precise analysis is a waste of time. Focus on the big impacts: space heating, air conditioning, compressed air, use of vehicles etc.

And don't forget the old farmers' saying: "a pig never got fat by weighing it".

Another tip next Monday!
