Harnessing the potential of ICT for more environmentally friendly cities and urban transport
ICT initiatives focusing on making cities more environmentally friendly will come together to present their work. The session will focus on green options, such as teleworking, public transportation, municipal CO2 plans, smart communities, and green buildings for a low carbon economy. The objectives of the session are to share climate change initiatives for greener and better connected cities; to promote ICT for energy efficiency, particularly for transportation and buildings; and to put the spotlight on initiatives from IT business leaders and local authorities. Raising awareness among researchers, the press, business leaders, local authorities, European institutions and NGOs will be an important goal of the session.
