Hackers and Planet Earth

Presented at The Last HOPE (2008), July 18, 2008, 6 p.m. (60 minutes).

Technological innovations of the last few centuries have changed our relationship with Planet Earth. With fossil fuel supplies in decline, energy demand growing, and worrying climate change predictions, the future doesn't look great. The presentation will start by briefly looking at the challenges that lie ahead. What can we as hackers, both individually and collectively, do to be more environmentally sustainable? How could we use our skills in the event of the situation reaching crisis point?


Presenters:
