High-tech solutions need to be part of the Copenhagen agenda | Ethiopian News (via @rashaja) - http://www.ethiopianreview.com/36593
"ICT is the single most powerful tool humankind has at its disposal to avoid potential climate catastrophe." ITU wants COP15 delegates to include specific mention of ICTs in key areas of the negotiating text. Specific mention of the ICT sector, along with the adoption of an agreed methodology for measuring the carbon footprint of ICT equipment and its inclusion in National Adaptation/Mitigation Plans, would provide an incentive to the ICT industry to invest in developing countries, help reduce the digital divide, and at the same time help fight climate change – a win-win scenario." - Thierry R.
