Lots of work on that issue everywhere !

- new tech give opportunities to hurt environment and asks for energy as never before in History

- it also offers opportunities to solve issues (eg : working from home with network, clean techs... can drastically reduce energy use for any given task).

I could have taken examples in health, food, whatever... 

the real and only issue is what we use it for (money ? progress ? rich people ? all of us...)

and THAT is not a question of technics or science.
