HydroPoint Data Systems, Inc., a Smart Water Management company, recently announced the results of its annual Green Leaders Survey.  Environmental leaders from various companies were surveyed on their green programs and practices. They also revealed some insight into what works and what doesn’t when it comes to corporate sustainability programs during these tough economic times.

The findings reveal that nearly 77 percent of respondents think that environmental issues pose an economic threat to their businesses. As a result, 86 percent are implementing green practices, while 75 percent already use green products. 

A majority of those surveyed expect that financial and environmental gains can be achieved through the implementation of green practices and products and 35 percent expect a return on investment within 24 months.

The survey also suggests that the government sector is leading the sustainability charge with 100 percent of respondents working in the government sector reporting dedication to environmental responsibility.
