natural calamities
Benefit of ICT in climate
change
1 Reducing CO2 emissions
3 Raising public awareness

4. ICT tools for mitigating climate
change
• Computer-controlled systems can be used to make home, work
and manufacturing more energy efficient.
• Telecommunications are vital in responding to natural disasters
that climate change may bring.
• Monitoring vulnerable or dangerous environments is possible
with sensor networks.
• Satellite observations provide essential data on weather and
vegetation patterns.

5. • Ocean buoys communicate data on tsunami or
sea-level changes, via satellite.
• Broadband Internet access makes it easier to
share large amounts of data globally
Distributed (grid) computing allows researchers
to explore topics in unprecedented depth
