Focus Group on ICTs and Climate Change
From ITUwiki
The ITU-T Focus Group on ICTs and Climate Change (ICT&CC) was established by TSAG at its 2-9 July 2008 meeting.
The Focus Group will identify from the standardization viewpoint, within the competences of ITU-T, the impact of ICTs on Climate Change, in particular the reduction of ICT's own emissions over their entire lifecycle (direct impact), the mitigation that follows through the adoption of ICTs in other relevant sectors (indirect impact), and facilitating the monitoring of relevant climate parameters.
These Wiki sites will prove informal information concerning the work and activities. This Focus Group site will be maintained by members as an archive.
The official Focus Group website should be referenced for information. Participants and those otherwise interested in this work should subscribe to the relevant e-mail list (fixit@itu.int) of the group. Formal contributions, reports from Focus Group meetings and conference calls will be made available on the Focus Group website.
The first meeting will take place at ITU Headquarters in Geneva, from 1 to 3 September 2008 inclusive.
