This document summarizes several projects from the JISC Greening ICT Programme meeting in March 2011. 1) The Virtually Sustainable project studies the use of videoconferencing and virtual meetings to reduce travel and carbon emissions based on 15 years of research. Surveys were conducted of university staff, travel managers, and JANET VC users to quantify the impacts. 2) The Open to Change project at the University of Oxford explores using open data and social influence to encourage altruistic punishment or pro-environmental behavior. 3) The DUALL project aims to design an ICT interface connecting building users to their electricity consumption to understand how ICT can reduce energy use. Objectives

1. JISC Greening ICT Programme Meeting March 2011 Lightning Talks Slides

3. Virtually Sustainable Peter James and Lisa Hopkinson SusteIT, University of Bradford Videoconferencing (VC) and other virtual meeting technologies as a means of reducing travel-related energy and carbon Builds on 15 years previous research Collaboration with WVN

4. Surveys Surveys in 5-10 universities on staff use of virtual meeting technologies – quantify travel impacts Survey of university travel managers from over 40 universities and colleges Survey of JANET VC users

5. Virtual Events Conferencing , Edinburgh, Aug 2010 The V-Factor , 4 Welsh sites, Feb 2011 (with Welsh Video Network) E-learning best practice , Bradford, April 2011

6. Cases & Briefing Papers Coleg Meirion-Dwyfor/Llandrillo - until recently ~25% of all the UK-wide calls handled by the JANET VC Service. University of Bedfordshire - uses VC to reduce travel and improve communication between 5 campuses. Glenda Davies John Wells

7. Final Report Provisional UK conclusions: Considerable use, but JANET a minority Hunger for more Key barriers – ease of use, information, technology focused support

8. Open to Change Open data + social capital = altruistic punishment University of Oxford

9. Do we believe this kind of graphic will persuade people to act?

10. Will this make it better?
