Auditing of Carbon Emissions, Canberra, 13th August 2008
Green ICT Special Interest Group Meeting
Rod Gillan, Principal, Ethan Group
Auditing of Carbon Emissions
In August 2007, Ethan Group conducted an Audit of the carbon emissions contribution by ICT in Australia Business for the Australian Computer Society (ACS). The Audit provided the foundation for the ACS to develop their Policy around Carbon Neutrality and begin lobbying the government for change.
It is not contended that all business should immediately become carbon neutral but rather that a rational coherent process should be undertaken to reduce emissions on a realistic and cost-effective basis. We recommend a commitment to a process which over time dramatically cuts emissions through the careful implementation of technology and an observance of emission reducing upgrade paths at various points along an infrastructure lifecycle.
