Opening Remarks It is good see strong support from our host country
(Japan) We hope you find our work thought provoking and helpful
in promoting your ‘green agenda’ This week our main objective is to finalise Deliverable 3
on Methodologies In view of the urgency of tackling climate changewe need to focus on agreeing the main message We should not be sidetracked by details which can be
tidied up via the Editors To date we have had two face to face meetings and 28
teleconferences Editors and FG members have worked in cooperation via
email etc to produce baseline texts for the 4 deliverables and an executive summary

Scene Setting-How can our work impact
Climate Change? By reducing need for fossil fuel burn
ITU Recommendations typically specify signals between ‘black boxes’
These signals can be modified to allow low duty-cycle operation– Standby modes
Management signals assist in fault location/rerouting Engineering visits can be scheduled to avoid wasted trips
ICTs are used in other sector’s devices to improve efficiency E.g. satellite navigation to assist farmer’s harvesting
ICTs are used to substitute for other sector’s emissions Travel
Sensor systems to measure climate parameters for scientific purpose and/or adaptation E.g. Satellite spectrum management Terrestrial systems Alerts

How can we help move the work forward?
Developing new ideas in your own company Sharing these ideas internationally via standards
Become involved in ITU By making contributions
Into the FG Deliverable 3– With likely follow up in new Recommendations (after TSAG
meets in April) Directly into existing SGs
– Recommendations can be updated– E.g. Standby modes
– By examining Questionnaire responses and spotting an opportunity to work on a ‘green’ issue inside a SG

Some things to think about this week
What opportunities do you have for leadership in the ‘green’ area James Hansen Director of NASA said last week “We can no longer
allow politicians and business to twist and ignore science” “The scientists can connect the dots and define the implications of
different policy choices and we should make clear those implications.”*
Would your line manager at work support you in a new project objective to reduce your own or your company’s carbon footprint? Would a reference from FG Chairman help you launch this? Can your company feed into your country’s green agenda
E.g. wider take up of travel avoidance ideas? Who else in your company could help you? If you have to leave before Friday please speak to Dave who
has a small gift for you!

required and in what group (28-30 April)
