Abstract

For years there has been an implicit assumption that the economic growth is dependent on emission growth. However, ICT has the potential to reduce energy consumption of almost all other industries. GeSi SMARTer2030 (2015) report1 shows that ICT has the potential to enable a 20% reduction of global CO2 emissions by 2030, thus holding emissions at 2015 levels, and demonstrating that judicious usage of ICT could effectively decouple economic growth from emissions growt.

将经济增长与碳排放增长脱钩

多年来，人们一直有一个隐含的假设，即经济增长依赖于排放增长。然而，信息通信技术有潜力减少几乎所有其他行业的能源消耗。GeSi SMARTer2030(2015)报告1显示，到2030年，信息通信技术有可能使全球二氧化碳排放量减少20%，从而将排放量保持在2015年的水平，并表明明智地使用信息通信技术可以有效地将经济增长与排放增长脱钩。
