Dr Simon Forsyth
Simon stumbled into environmental management in 1989 by offering to look after a paperrecycling
bin. After that, things rather ran away with themselves. He helped set up the
Green Teams at Hewlett Packard in Bristol, ran them for five years, then became HP Ltd’s
full-time environmental specialist. He left in 2000 to run a small consultancy, went on to run
the Econet in-work training project, helped deliver the southwest-wide Envision programme,
established a number of Resource Efficiency Clubs for small businesses, trained a lot of
Trading Estates, and now focuses on the business linkages between cost-intensity, carbonintensity,
and becoming more profitable. To condense all this into something usable, he
produces simplifying software – the dataCollator
