  • 14 Mar 2019
    7:00 pm - 8:30 pm

Computing has transformed the world, but there is a price: the huge amount of energy being consumed by massive, factory-sized data centres means that information and communications technology (ICT) already consumes about 8% of global electricity, and is doubling every decade. ICT now has the same global-warming contribution as the aviation industry. Tickets At the Read More
