Sustainability: Can tech ever be environmentally friendly?

from Technology Untangled Hosted by Hewlett Packard Enterprise

Climate change is front-page news, and rightly so. We've collectively got ourselves into this mess, so can tech help us innovate our way out of it? And how does your organisation play its part? Join host, Michael Bird, on a journey through the circular economy, from climate science and sustainability strategies to cutting-edge materials innovation with Mateo Dugand. Ray McGann explains how you can shake off the take-make-throw-use model and make the most of the new frontier of asset upcycling. We look at how governments are incentivising new innovations with Mattie Yeta from DEFRA, and what we can do to hold organisations accountable. Plus, Steve Gair troubleshoots your asset refresh cycles and discusses where you can save money and, most importantly, reduce your environmental impact.
