Back to Day 2 of @NGMN_Alliance #NGMNICE22 moderated by @guydaniels of @TelecomTV

Sessions today are about green networks & sustainability

Solemn introductions by Guy & Antia Doehler of NGMN commemorating yesterday's sad loss of the Queen
@NGMN_Alliance @guydaniels @TelecomTV First speaker is @martineaus , a #COP26 adviser on sustainability, setting wider global & societal context for the telecom industry.

Notes GSMA stats (31% more traffic, 5%+ electricity, 2%+ CO2 in 2021) show that they are "decoupled". But notes that last number must fall
Interestingly that suggests to me one of the more absurd arguments I've heard recently "we must reign in data traffic growth to reduce CO2 emissions" or "don't send that email" (!!) is a fallacy.

We know it, sustainability advisers know it, so let's stop pretending bits = CO2

Already bumped into @Gabeuk & @keithdyer at #NGMNICE22 …. Anyone else here that I know? Image
No #5G roaming for @VodafoneUK subs in France

#NGMNICE22 venue gets two bars of 4G signal, but at least the WiFi is decently fast at about 60Mbps & 7ms latency (even through a VPN)
Interesting focus on #6G “societal requirements & use cases”

Hope to see things like “multiple network owner types & models” & “needs to be indoor-primary”

… and not too much blather about sci-fi visions of a sensory/olfactory metaverse

… & no “flatrate data is bad” rhetoric
