Sustainability - How to be Green
Will we get to NetZero by 2050?
How can the archive industry tackle
the environmental crisis? In this important session we gain a deep
understanding of where we are today and how we find a creditable path to
getting there in the future. Expert panellists discuss how we can achieve this,
what investment can we do now from working with creatives to multi-environment
media storage alongside discovering what resources are available.
