CGDM Director
Arpad Horvath and Michael Toffel of Haas Business School present two case
studies on the environmental implications of wireless technology in the June 1
issue of
Environmental Science & Technology. A comparison of the full life cycle
environmental impacts are evaluated for reading news (by way of PDA versus a
traditional newspaper) as well as for long-distance meetings (wireless
teleconferencing versus business travel). Read the
Press Release,
access the
paper online, or read a
review of
their research in Science News.
