Some leading broadband providers are taking steps to promote their 'green' credentials, and to show they care about the impact of IT on the environment.

For example, BT is committed to making a positive contribution to society and to a sustainable future, and believes it has a responsibility to champion the role of improved communications for all.

BT uses its expertise and technology to make the biggest impact possible, from supporting young people to reducing its carbon footprint, and is helping to create a greener world.

For every BT customer who signs up to paper-free billing, The Woodland Trust will plant a native sapling on their behalf.
