Broadband Is Good for the Environment

Going green means more than putting timers on lights. For the communications community, it includes research, software design, procurement, manufacturing, power conservation, call center strategies, cooling processes and more.

Government-mandated rules to reduce carbon dioxide
emissions are considered very likely to be
put in place soon.


This means service providers, network owners, manufacturers and suppliers have a decision to make: position themselves as a green communications provider or risk losing out on a multi-trillion dollar global market. Energy companies are poised to take a good share of the potential green service offerings if the communications industry isn’t. 

Are you willing to sit on the sidelines and let this happen?

The opportunity for broadband to decrease and avoid energy use is significant.

  • Electronic communications reduce the demand for first-class letters and newspaper subscriptions, decreasing the need for paper, saving trees, conserving energy and lowering transportation costs.
  • As more workers telecommute from home or other remote locations, billions of gallons of gasoline are saved.
  • As less commercial office space is used, less energy is consumed.
  • As more people shop online, gasoline and energy costs decrease, the number of cars on the road declines and heating and cooling retail buildings become less necessary.
  • As more workers teleconference, business travel is reduced, generating less carbon and other emissions.

These advancements and their contribution to improving the environment are significant, thanks to broadband technologies.
