Soaring airfares prompt global video conferencing.

Soaring airfares and concerns about emission levels are prompting companies worldwide to replace physical trips of their executives with high-end videoconferencing.Telecom firm,Vodapone, for example saved over 13,500 flights per year and used videoconferencing to reduce its carbon footprint by over 5000 tonne.Similarly, electronics giant Philips, with an estimated 2,70,000-tonne carbon footprint due to business travel,has introduced videoconferencing to its internal online travel booking system, including information about the benefits. Human resource departments of large firms represent top users of high-end video conference technology today, finding it simple and economical way to narrow a field of key personnel candidates flying in finalists. Reducing travel lowers environmental impacts in otherways, including fewer taxis, car rentals and hotel stays.
