"The Cabinet Office yesterday announced plans to slash the carbon footprint of IT within Central Government departments. It's a major strategic development. Information and communication technology is responsible for up to 20 per cent of carbon emissions generated by Government offices - around 460,000 tonnes a year. Under the plan announced today by Cabinet Office Minister Tom Watson the Government aims to make energy consumption of ICT carbon neutral within four years."
