Tackling Climate Change – The Role of ICT
Information and communication technologies (ICT) provide us with an unprecedented ability to collect and analyse environmental information that may encompass the entire terrestrial system, from the depths of the ocean to the upper reaches of the atmosphere. They enable us not only to assess the impact of humans on the environment, but also to manage our use of energy and production of greenhouse gases (in the home and in industry). Thus, ICT are an essential part of efforts to combat climate change and to mitigate its effects.
