Lectio Magistralis: How much material is the immaterial? The energy and environmental impact of ICT

Abstract: For a long time, the digital industry has been considered clean because it was "immaterial". But this is an illusion. All digital is physical, for example the "cloud" is not in the sky but on the earth, in a "data center" that consume a lot of energy and produce greenhouse gases, every time we send a simple email. The environmental impact of digital tools is enormous and is growing very fast. What to do to have a sustainable digital?

Host: Prof. Marco Affronte (marco.affronte@unimore.it)
