We want to make a difference

With Global warming and environmental issues headlining every day, many businesses promoted their Green concerns as a way of providing an impressive business statement….within the last few years the eco-conscious community has demanded more evidence of what that Green Strategy actually means to our businesses and the positive effects they may have on the environment.

How do we play our part?

There are a number of ways in which a business can be more eco-aware and the IT department has a key role to play in providing technology solutions to the business that reduce the energy requirements of their day-to-day operations. It is through use of our technology that we are delivering against our green strategy. Whilst we may not be perfect we are going along way down this road and are on a program of continuous improvement. Through unified communication and collaboration our staff can now work from any location, reducing their carbon footprint. We are now moving heavily towards e-communication to reduce paper usage and our whole IT focus is now on efficiency and sustainability.

In July 2010 two employees attended a BT and Carbon Trust co-hosted workshops to discuss a new BT initiative to work with our suppliers on climate change."It is increasingly important for BT to engage proactively with our suppliers and to discuss ways to reduce carbon emissions." BT Group.

This workshop gave valuable information to eSOURCE to kick start the Carbon Reduction initiative detailed in this document.
