We have been absolutely stunned, amazed, and inspired by the Schools 4 Climate Action movement that has been started by young environmental activist Greta Thunberg. As we share her strong values, we are deeply affected by the movement and wish to offer our support and encouragement to students who wish to participate.

Doing nothing gets you nothing, that’s for sure. But the truth is everyone has the ability to take action.

We all have dreams and goals personally and professionally, and a vision of how this looks. But dreaming is the easy part. Where do we begin and how do we make it happen?

Taking positive action combined with positive thinking results in success.

After all, an idea not coupled with action will never get any bigger than the brain cell it occupied!

Are you ready to take action? Then read on and infuse your life with action!

One of the most attractive features of Warp It to users is that we track the value of each trade, both financially and sustainably, so that we can help to demonstrate the value of reuse.

The importance of this is that people need to be aware of the impact of their reuse activities. Once this impact can demonstrated as positive and progressive, as well as cost and environmentally saving, the more others in the organisation will take notice and get involved. This is significant.

Projects within organisations come in all shapes and sizes, but there’s one thing that they all share in common, and that’s collaboration.

No matter how difficult or complex a project may be, its success is dependent on how well the various parties involved have come together to make it happen.

One thing that we are occasionally asked is whether customers can send assets straight to a charity and bypass the internal reuse phase.

The reason this is asked is that when you add an asset usually, it gets advertised to internal and then later to whoever has been defined as ‘priority two’, and ‘priority three’ (see this article about share days).

However there are some cases where you might want to avoid internal reuse- the item might not be corporate colours, the item might be non compliant or outdated. As such you donot want internal staff to claim it!

We believe in the value of training and support, which is why we are launching Stakeholder Buy-In Webinars to ensure your reuse system gets off to a flying start.

Daniel O’Connor is back to give you some fantastic advice about launching your reuse programme.

As the founder and all-around-good-guy of Warp It, Daniel’s hands-on approach has meant that he has worked directly with hundreds of Warp It users, if not thousands, to support their set up, launch, and ongoing project.

This article has been put together for Warp It Administrators, to help you pilot the Warp It programme.

The optimal stage to run a pilot is once you’ve set yourself up on the system, got to grips with the settings and customisable features, and have some insights about what the first major milestones you wish to deliver are.
