Green Meter Quantifies Web Conference Savings
| August 28, 2008 |  View for printing |
As of July 2008, Arizona's state government had prevented 760,773 pounds of carbon dioxide from entering the atmosphere this year, according to a "Green Meter" that measures the environmental benefit of using Web conferencing technology.
Fourteen Arizona state agencies now use Web conferencing software from iLinc Communications, and state CIO Chris Cummiskey wants to see more agencies license the product. The Green Meter, which is part of the iLinc software package, tracks savings from using Web conferencing instead of traveling to physical meetings.
Cummiskey said the meter helps demonstrate Web conferencing's value.
