Where: Amsterdam, TQ Amsterdam

How to get there?

Getting to grisps on what is ‘Green ICT’ is not an easy task, but the concept of Green ICT touches all our lives and brings together two relevant themes concerning the present and future world : technology and the environment. Nevertheless, just as many other things we do every day, ICT has an environmental impact: so far, the global ICT industry accounts for approximately 2 percent of global carbon dioxide (CO²) emissions, a figure equivalent to aviation.

The European public sector, including city authorities, have a role to play in the emergence of an environmentally-friendly ICT sector.
