The BBC has failed to deliver on its commitment to reduce its environmental footprint:

Carbon emissions went up to almost 0.25 tonnes per broadcast hour in 2005, compared with just over 0.15 tonnes the year before.

According to the BBC's Corporate and Social Responsibilities Report 2006 - released this week - the total waste per BBC employee also rose, from almost 250kg per person to just under 300kg.

A cut in the number of broadcast hours is the obvious solution.
