| Abstract Text | The talk will give an overview on sustainability issues of ICT, starting from the Green IT perspective and extending it in several directions: Life-Cycle thinking, issues beyond energy (scarce metals), enabling effects of ICT, and systemic effects of ICT. Based on a review of studies assessing the potential of ICT to reduce the carbon footprint of the economy, the conditions will be discussed under which ICT could substantially contribute to sustainable development. |
