SMART 2020
In
2008, The Climate Group on
behalf of the Global e-Sustainability Initiative
(GeSI), with independent analysis by McKinsey &
Company found that ICT is a key sector in the fight against
climate change and could enable emissions reductions of 7.8 Gt CO2e
in 2020, or 15% of business as usual emissions. But it must keep
its own growing footprint in check and overcome a number of hurdles
if it expects to deliver on this potential.
