Are you wondering how the internet can contribute to the fight against climate change? Does your firm have clients that demand the most secure hosting facilities? If you fit any of these profiles or are on the periphery of this area, you’ll want to consider attending any of four conferences slated to take place between now and June 15.

Green: Net 2010, April 29, 2010

This is cutting it a little close, but Green: Net 2010 is right around the corner. It’s a day for professionals, academics, NGOs and other interested parties to come together and examine how the internet and related technologies can help in the fight against climate change. The Climate Group has predicted that information and communications technologies could enable emissions reductions of 15 to 20% below current amounts by 2020. Whether you’re an entrepreneur with ideas to help this process succeed or a forward-thinking corporation looking to do your part, you’ll find a wealth of information and resources at this popular conference. This is the second annual such conference, and the first sold out. However, tickets still appear to be available this year.

Some topics to be discussed include:

• The Smart Grid and Its Impact
• The Networked Car
• Software and the Carbon Policy
• Home Energy Management
• The Web and Dematerialization
