 What do hydrogen, quantum computers and satellites have in common? 🫧💻🛰️ They're all key technologies to reach climate neutrality by 2050. Our #StrategicForesight report identifies 10 areas for action to maximise synergies between the green and digital transitions in the EU. 6 comments
  @wim_v12e @EU_Commission The social media people running these accounts do not have the authority to decide what gets posted. There is a long chain of command, I hope you understand that. Contacting a MEP is probably your best bet. @gargron @EU_Commission If the Commission wants to communicate to the public, then they have to communicate back the public's views to the decision makers as well.  @EU_Commission is it possible to access that report with a modern web browser? The site requires a heavy load of Javascript.  @EU_Commission who wrote this post cause not only is it entirely made up drivel but "praocesses" is uh a cool neologism that you may have coined just for this image |

@EU_Commission These claims go entirely against the consensus in the field.
The projected growth in AI, blockchain, IoT will lead to a massive rise in emissions, not a reduction. And contrary to your claim, none of these technologies is essential in reducing emissions.
Quantum Computing is unlikely to be mainstream by 2050 and has currently no promise of energy efficiency. There are much more promising compute technologies. Space-based services cause emissions in the upper atmosphere which leads to additional warming of those layers, making global warming worse.
Please check with experts before posting things like this.(fwiw, I am an expert in low-carbon and sustainable computing so green & digital transition is my area)
