The smarter-everything people at IBM have released a new survey this morning suggesting that even though technologies are getting "smarter" in your house, office buildings are failing to take advantage of similar innovation.

The Smarter Buildings Survey covers canvassed close to 6,500 U.S. office workers in 16 different major cities. Only a third of those surveyed believed that their buildings were "somewhat high," "very high" or "extremely high" when it comes to environmental responsibility. About two-thirds said they would be willing to participate in a building redesign, using technology, that would help make their place of work more environmentally responsible.
