TECH BRIEFING: Green IT: Sustainability and Energy Management in IT

Join us for this Tech Briefing as Joe Stagner, the Executive Director of Sustainability and Energy Management (SEM) discusses the impact of IT energy use on the environment.

The scale of impact that campus IT operations has on campus energy use, water use and waster generation will be discussed. Some good work has already been done, but Joe will review the major opportunities for reducing energy use and waste generation that have already been identified at Stanford.
