Enviromental IT Leadership partnerhsip with Global Action Plan

Environmental IT Leadership Team

An Inefficient Truth

An Inefficient Truth is the first research report produced by Global Action Plan on behalf of the Environmental IT Leadership Team. The Leadership Team is a unique gathering of major ICT users from a range of different sectors who are committed to taking practical action to cut carbon dioxide emissions.

The report contains four sections:

The first section assesses the environmental impact of the ICT sector which is virtually the equivalent of the aviation industry.
Section two analyses survey results from major ICT users and discovers how quickly and effectively the sector is responding to the environmental agenda.
The third section takes a snapshot look at some case studies illustrating how companies are implementing practical solutions that are reducing carbon emissions and saving them money.
Finally, there is a Call to Action from Global Action Plan setting out some of the challenges facing Government, vendors and users in order to move the sector towards a lower carbon future.

An Inefficient Truth is the first part of a longer journey which will see Global Action Plan using its position as an independent practical environmental charity to help cut carbon emissions from the ICT sector.
