研究顯示 手機(jī)對(duì)環(huán)境最具殺傷力
Data centers and smartphones will be the most damaging information and communications technologies to the environment by 2040, according to new research from Canadian reseacher Lotfi Belkhir.
根據(jù)加拿大研究人員盧特菲·貝爾希爾的最新研究，到2040年，數(shù)據(jù)中心和智能手機(jī)將是對(duì)環(huán)境最具破壞力的信息和通信技術(shù)（ICT）。
Belkhir says, "ICT will account for as much as 14% for the total global footprint by 2040."
貝爾希爾表示：“到2040年，ICT將占到全球碳足跡總量的14%。”
Among all the devices, trends suggest that by 2024, the most damaging devices to the environment are smartphones.
