CREDIT CRUNCH OR CLIMATE CRUNCH?
Developing a sustainable information service during an economic downturn
Tuesday 20 January Hammonds LLP, 7 Devonshire Square, London EC2M 4YH
Is being green a luxury we can only afford in good times? In fact,
implementing sustainable practices saves money by eliminating wasted
resources, and future-proofs organisations by establishing sustainable
business practices. At a time when many organisations need to pay careful
attention to their resources and business practices, this is a an ideal
opportunity to be learning about sustainable development.
Sustainability, or corporate social responsibility, aims to make an
organisation's environmental, economic and social impacts sustainable and
viable for the long-term. This seminar introduces delegates to the concepts
of sustainability including an interactive session on developing a
sustainable information service.
* What is corporate social responsibility?
* What role does your information service have in the
sustainability of your organisation?
* What are the metrics used to assess environmental, economic
and social impact?
* What's the real environmental impact of paper v electronic
resources?
* Learn how to cut your costs at the same time as improving
your reputation with users
* Understand the legal and regulatory framework for
sustainability
