This represents 15% of emissions in 2020…” Two of the most interesting and innovative climate solutions that can contribute to a higher quality of life and decreased ecological footprint are virtual meetings and telecommuting. World Wildlife Fund Report, From Workplace to Anyplace, March 2009 “…each economic sector will realize double-digit percentage cost reductions in power consumption (>30 percent) and product waste cost savings (for commercial buildings, 50-90 percent) through adoption of green telecom solutions.” Independent Reports Coming to Similar Conclusions
