“Digitalization – Global! Sustainable?” was the title of this year’s symposium presented by the Council of Environmental Prizewinners on the day preceding the award of the prize in Essen. Numerous professionals from the economic and scientific/academic worlds made presentations and engaged in a discussion before an audience of about 300 persons, on the subject of the extent to which the global trend toward digitalization is sustainable, or can be made more sustainable in the future.
