Can video conferencing prevent global warming?

Global warming has been a subject that most of us have grown up hearing about, it has been a concern for some for many years but it appears to have been thrust into the limelight in recent years. Many of the world’s politically sensitive governments and prominent scientists have all started to take notice of the extreme weather conditions that are starting to plague our planet, they are talking more seriously about solutions and action that needs to be taken NOW to ensure our world’s health.

CO2 production is at record levels; there is a large amount of resources that are wasted on a daily basis and now is the time to take action. It is very simple to think to ourselves that we, as individuals, cannot do anything about the collective polluting and the wasting of resources but of course we all know change is a gradual process brought about by individuals changing their behaviour. You and I make the difference, if we all started to think about how we effect the planet with our actions, global warming can be slowed and may even be reversed. If we assume that all is lost no-one will try to change, we have to take responsibility both in our business lives as well as our private lives. Eyenetwork offers a solution to the huge amount of unnecessary business miles that add to the huge CO2 output we generate. Every year thousands of air miles are spent attending business meetings abroad that could be more easily carried out using the high quality video conferencing technology that is available from Eyenetwork.
