Resume
Although often hailed as an enabler for a smarter, more sustainable future, the environmental impact of the telecoms sector is also seen as problematic.
In this report, we try to better understand the environmental footprint of telecoms, why global warming is impacting on telecoms and the different ways they can act to reduce this impact.
Most importantly, we analyse the strategies of the largest telecoms companies and provide a benchmark, at the end of 2020, of who is leading and who is following in the race to decarbonise their network.
