Lack of funds holds back green offices 01/06/07
 
Charities wanting to improve the green credentials of their office space do not have the funds or expertise to do so, according to a new report from Every Action Counts.

The survey of 442 voluntary organisations found that 89% would like to make their office ‘greener’, but 84% said the cost of making changes was holding them back. More than half (61%) also said that a lack of knowledge or signposting was also reducing their ability to improve their eco-standards.

Many organisations already admitted to taking small steps; 74% said they already ensured all computers and lights were switched off when they left the building.

Every Action Counts is now publishing a Green Office Guide to help support charities and voluntary organisations in their attempts to make their offices eco-friendly.
