Business use of ICT produces 2% of the world’s CO2 emissions and that is the same as the airline industry. 1 All LAs have a target to meet in lowering CO2 emissions.2 National Framework for Sustainable Schools is part of the OFSTED Inspection. New builds, such as PCP & BSF are required to reduce CO2 compared to the old school(s) they are replacing. 2008 study found that English schools estates emits 8.5 million tonnes of carbon dioxide each year. 3 Not forgetting out moral duty as educators of young people. We should always lead by example.

Recycling Paper and Toners. Get the pupils thinking about it. Compare your results with another school. Start small and then look at the bigger challenges. Make it everybody’s responsibility

Notas do Editor
- Welcome I am Russell Dyas From EduGeek.net.Todays sessions is on green computing but before we get into that I have a question<change>
- What doRoman coins and IT have in common?In the Guardian Education last week there was an article about a teacher Philippa Holden in Brushwood junior school, Buckinghamshire for Romans project created a archaeological dig with real villa foundations and fake roman pots and coins.<change>As can see students and staff a like had a lot of fun. Their was one problem as along with fake coins they buried from local museum some real coins. This would be ok if were not for the fact that at end they still hadn’t found some of the coins.This is what IT is like in some ways what was good idea at start may not of been so good in hind sight. We have had years on investment in ICT just name a government scheme NGFL, laptop for teachers, computers for pupils.Problem is green aspect of IT became an afterthought.<change>
- So why should we care about green ICT.Business use of ICT produces 2% of the world’s CO2 emissions and that is the same as the airline industry(The Gartner report did not include consumer electronics apart from Mobile phones) All Las have targets to meet in this they need:Per capita reduction in CO2 emissions in the LA area from:Business and Public Sector,Domestic housing, andRoad transportCO2 reduction from local authority operationsGreen agenda for schools has been put into National Framework for Sustainable Schools which is now part of the ofsted inspection and there is an area on the SEF that schools have to show how they are working towards that.New schools under schemes such as Building Schools for Future & the Primary Capital Programme require new builds to reduce.English schools alone emit 8.5 million tones of CO2 each year.Also lets not forget our morel and ethical duty as educators. we should lead by example.<change>
- We have two major challenges in implementing the Green IT Agenda.Technical and CultureOne of the biggest challenges is the cultureWhen you try and implement stuff it sometimes feel like this<change>
- <What Video>Sometimes we feel like the person on top of the building and getting over whelmed with it all. But it is about making small steps that will add to the bigger picture.<Change>
