"Go GREEN - The GREEN Way"

Go green
Go Green campaign, an employee-driven initiative, which was launched at SYS-Fest - SYSTIME's annual festival, is a step towards conserving our environment. This initiative involves sensitizing employees to the reckless use of natural resources by encouraging them to internalize an eco-friendly lifestyle and make it a part of the work culture.
For the campaign to be focused and have a pervasive effect across the organization and community, representatives have been appointed from various functions who will be guardians of the campaign. The representatives, called the "Go Green champions", will drive the initiative within their respective functions through various activities inviting support and participation of their colleagues.

In this campaign, we strove to promote a number of eco-friendly activities to ensure that SYSTIMErs, as responsible citizens, do their bit to make the world a better place for all. The "Go Green Campaign" was divided into different phases and each phase supported the reduction in consumption and preservation of our resources. To ensure that the Go Green message reaches our fellow SYSTIMErs, we invited SYSTIMErs to be ambassadors and spread this cause. These ambassadors were our Go Green Champions.

   
Green Anthem  
  Did you hear our Mother Nature call,
She's trying to reach one and all..

Go Green Go Green she's cries out aloud.
Don't turn a deaf ear, let's help her out.

Have you spared time to sit down
look around and then for yourself see
the state of the drying tree.

Have you spared time to sit down
look around and then for yourself see
the cry of animals in misery.

Have you spared time to sit down
look around and then for yourself see
the melting of ice into water all pouring into the sea.

Have you spared time to sit down
look around and then for yourself see
No chirpy birds only Industries.

Have you spared time to sit down
look around and then for yourself see
Polluting vehicles all running free.

Have you spared time to sit down
look around and then for yourself see
the sight of a clear blue sky diminishing steadily

Have you spared time to sit down
look around and then for yourself see
Greenery gone and all their beautiful poetries.

Have you spared time to sit down
look around and then for yourself see
Fight for drinking water all leading to rivalry.

 
The details of the activities we have conducted.
Monthly Theme: For each month, we had a theme and we conducted many activities around the theme.
   
Month of March Theme: Save Paper
   


Save Paper


GreenPeace


Quiz contest

Activities conducted:

Awareness created through a short seminar by an NGO "GreenPeace"

“GreenPeace” is an NGO specialising in environmental issues and it is an internationally recognized organisation. The representative from GreenPeace explained clearly that their efforts will bear fruit only with support from Corporates and particularly the IT GenNext, who comprise a large group of committed soldiers. And he also narrated some of their experiences and said the GreenPeace movement has gathered enough mass in India to move the Powers that need to be sensitive to environmental issues.

'Eco Boxes' were introduced to collect used papers and these papers are shredded and forwarded for recycling.

Awareness on use of Mugs instead of Paper Cups to drink Tea/Coffee/ Water.

Short Quiz contest conducted with the view to spread awareness

Success Achieved:

We have achieved a fair amount of success in this campaign. This could be gauged from the 60% drop in usage of paper cups and the effective use of eco boxes.

   
Month of April Theme: Save Energy
   

Save Energy


Bicycle Race


Brisk Walking


Save Water

Activities conducted:

"Go Green Team" and "SYS-Fun Team" came together for the Baisakhi Day event and organized 'Bicycle Race' and 'Brisk Walking' events to encourage people to use eco-friendly means of travel.

Go Green and SYS-Fun jointly celebrated the New Year and the Harvest Festivals of different regions of India on April 11, 2008. SYSTIMErs enjoyed Gudi Padwa, Ugadi, Baisakhi, Vishu and Mahavishuba Sankranti. To mark this occasion, SYS-Fun and Go Green Team organised two activities followed by sweets and snacks. Slow Cycle Race was a big hit among SYSTIMErs. All the participants tried their skills on bicycles and three of them emerged winners. Brisk Walking Race, was the other flavour of the evening. Who likes to lose!!! The Brisk Walking Race turned out to be a slow running race!!! With all the cheer and energy, both the races together produced 6 winners.

On 'Earth day', we put up newspaper cut outs in the cafeteria for people to read more about global warming.

We conducted a slogan contest.

To mark the importance of the Earth Day, we had a Slogan contest. We had many participants but, had to decide the best three...

  • Save the world, it's the best legacy WE can leave for our future generations
  • Save the world... it's the second best gift you can give to your child after   BIRTH
  • Save the world, it's the most fascinating gift to man from heaven and any   damage done to it is irreversible.

Short Skits conducted in Pune office.

Success Achieved:

The activities were appreciated by many SYSTIMErs who shared their feedback and actively participated in the campaign.
