Isra-Mart news:

Sustainability software provider CloudApps has launched a free networking site to help firms across the country share best practices for reducing their environmental impact.

As revealed by BusinessGreen in September, CloudApps has created the Sustainability Space, which was launched late last week, offering more than 100 ideas to help green businesses.

CloudApps hopes these initial ideas will be reviewed by users, creating a platform which allows businesses to share and improve green initiatives.

The company also launched its Winter '12 edition of its Sustainability Suite late last week to help firms better measure the economic, social and environmental impacts of their sustainability programmes.

Unlike previous versions, Winter '12 allows users to share their environmental goals with the wider workforce.

It also enables businesses to forecast the impact that sustainability measures are likely to have on their performance.

"Our customers are innovators and they expect their suppliers to be leaders. The new CloudApps Winter '12 release is a massive step forward in sustainability, covering more sources, more accurately than ever," said Peter Grant, CEO of CloudApps.

"Combined with access to the very latest in sustainability thinking available for free via Sustainability-Space, it provides the 'How?' to Sustainability's 'What?'. With these advantages there simply is no excuse for organisations to miss out on the cost and brand advantages early adopters are clearly experiencing from sustainability."
