摘要附注:

"In this book, the authors investigate how digitization can influence environmental and social sustainability. The digital revolution is currently changing the daily lives of billions of people worldwide. It is also disrupting the economy, generating new opportunities and creating new challenges. Many sustainability researchers and representatives of civil society have been insisting for years that our economic model and consumerist lifestyle need to change to overcome the challenges facing the 21st-century world. Can the much-discussed disruption potential of digitalization be harnessed for this purpose? Smart Green World? provides guiding principles for sustainable digitalization and develops hands-on proposals that show how politicians, individuals, businesses and civil society actors can help achieve it. Can digitalization foster the transition to 100% renewable energy? Do sharing and "prosuming" transform consumption patterns towards sustainability - or do personalized commercials and an accelerated lifestyle lead to more consumption of stuff we don't need? How many people will lose their jobs and who will be affected? This book not only analyses the ecological and economic implications of digitalization; it also shows how we can actively shape the digital future in order to make it a driving force for sustainable social transformation. Providing a clear and practical assessment of the role digitization can play in a sustainable future, Smart Green World? Making Digitalization Work for Sustainability will be of great interest to students of sustainability and sustainable development, as well as those grappling with sustainability policy and practice in their professional life"--
