Also, Green Book Live is a free online database designed to help specifiers and end users identify products and services that can help to reduce their impact on the environment. Green Book Live brings together listings from a number of organisations and delivers comprehensive information on 'green' products and services, some approved to stringent environmental requirements and others based on information provided by manufacturers and trade bodies.
