A review of three small businesses that recently worked with Global Action Plan demonstrated average savings of £12,000 in a single year; not to mention a substantial reduction to their environmental impact and ability to attract new customers.

Energy efficiency is now the number one cost-cutting priority for UK businesses looking to combat the impact of a potential economic slowdown according to the Carbon Trust. Teamed with the increasing opportunity for resource efficiencies and the growing obligation placed on businesses to document their environmental credentials, it's now more important than ever to properly ‘green' your business.

The prize

Global Action Plan will provide the training and support to empower winning businesses to achieve Phase 3 of BS8555 standard in environmental management*. Winners of this unique competition will also receive one free month of ‘All You Can Meet' audio conferencing from BT Business and a 12 month BT Tradespace Premium subscription.

Improved environmental management can deliver tangible bottom-line cost savings that, depending upon the size and nature of the business, can run to tens of thousands of pounds annually.
