Thanks to Bianca Wirth for sending me the following information.
This week I'll probably be posting more Aussie content as I have 3 different people I am meeting with from Australia this week to discuss Green Data Centers.
ICT Environmental Sustainability Group
The ACS on behalf of the Queensland ICT Industry launched a National Green IT Industry Special Interest Group and Taskforce 23rd July 2008 at the Brisbane Town Hall. Slides and video from the event are available.
The Green IT Industry SIG aims to provide industry and consumers with reliable information on current strategies and practices for achieving environmentally sustainable IT.
Speakers from Industry and Government explained how the IT Industry and major users can understand and respond effectively to the changing business landscape created by climate change and carbon accounting.
