Croydon legal aid lawyers are doing their bit to tackle climate change with a new electronic system. It is hoped the change, being introduced by the Legal Services Commission, will save a minimum of 1.8million sheets of paper, or about 240 trees, and prevent 150 tonnes of carbon going into the atmosphere every year.
Martin Seel, the Legal Services Commission's London regional director, said: "As well as the environmental benefits, electronic working will also mean reduced administration costs and less bureaucracy."
