Global Action Plan are presenting the results of their national green IT survey at the ‘Inefficient Truth’ event December 3rd.

The survey, by the newly formed Environmental IT Leadership (EILT) Board, aims to to find out the level of awareness of IT impact on the environment that exists between IT managers.

Chaired by Global Action Plan and backed by internet solutions provider Logicalis, the EILT is the UK’s first end user green IT team. The group is comprised of members from Lloyds TSB, British Medical Association, John Lewis Partnership, E.ON UK and others, making up a diverse and influential group, committed to creating a positive change in the IT sector.

"Green Computing is an opportunity for us all to clearly demonstrate IT's value in helping our companies tackle an urgent, and global, issue.  It is vital that we do a good job collectively and that means being open about the specific problems we're facing and the solutions we're pursuing.  The Global Action Plan survey will provide a 'current state' understanding of companies' green IT initiatives and the obstacles we must overcome to help them succeed. The more organizations who respond to the survey, the better that understanding will be."
