The Economic Crisis News & Sports Broadcasting  3D: The Next Step User Generated Content Down To Earth

Down to earth

Energy, its conservation and sensible consumption is a major issue facing our world. The media industry can make a real difference by educating consumers worldwide - but it can also be seen as a major consumer of energy which needs to get its own house in order.

We are high consumers of energy and materials, whether travelling to create content, sourcing scarce raw materials or just powering equipment in our business and our audiences' homes, we should consider how we can radically reduce energy consumption.

IBC is taking a lead on this issue by creating the opportunities for the debate. What are the benefits and opportunities of being green? How should we tackle mandatory carbon output disclosures? What steps should we be taking to encourage environmental responsibility in our suppliers and our customers?

As the industry's leading international forum , IBC is the perfect platform to engage in the debate, sharing knowledge on the challenges and how best to tackle them.
