Greetings from the Sustainability Plus Technology Forum in Sydney 
<http://www.dealersgroup.com.au/?doc11&event=55>.

I missed the opening by Senator Penny Wong, Minister for Climate Change 
and Water. Bill Bien, Telstra Executive Director, has just claimed that 
Telstra has stabilised its greenhouse gas emissions and is the largest 
solar panel user in Australia. He showed covers of reports about this 
but did not provide a formal reference which I could use to verify the 
claims. Unfortunately Mr Bien is giving a presentation full of hype and 
vague claims which is not really convincing at a specialised conference 
on sustainability. But then he might say the same about my talk later in 
the day on "Online Collaboration: the future of networking for low 
emissions projects and companies":
