News International and HarperCollins will go carbon neutral by the end of 2007.

In a speech last week, Rupert Murdoch said that both had entered arrangements to buy renewable energy.

Some 70% of News International’s electricity is to come from hydroelectric power plants in Scotland, saving 36,000 tonnes of carbon next year.
