Reflections are only that, reflections, nothing more nothing less. Often these reflections are related to books I read, but occasionally also other things. These are often written very late, very fast,  using notes from my mobile phone, so the grammar and spelling is horrible.



Case Study Digest ICT: Greening the Public Sector: Increase the CO2 emissions from ICT

A report, "Case Study Digest ICT: Greening the Public Sector" from Intellect, with good low carbon ICT case studies. Would be interesting to use some 20th vs. 21st Century infrastructure calculation to calculate the savings from these solutions.

Here is a link to the "From Fossil to Future" report that include a discussion about why "a single minded focus on absolute reduction targets of CO2 from ICT would obviously not be very strategic and could be counterproductive".

Ericsson and climate positive calculations

Here is a document from Ericsson (235 kb) that is another contribution to the climate positive work where companies measure the impact of the services they provide (instead of only looking at their internal footprint).

The document from Ericsson builds on the joint Ericsson-WWF project that I worked with last year and soon more numbers from other companies will become available. 2010 looks like a climate positive year.
