DESCRIPTION:SusTech Talk August 2025 – Using metrics for improved sustain
 ability forecasting\n\n“Using metrics for improved sustainability foreca
 sting”\n\nwith Ronald Hasenberger\, Bell Labs Consulting (Nokia)\, Vienn
 a\, Austria\n\nDate/Time: Wednesday\, August 27\, 11am-Noon Pacific Time (
 8pm CET)\n\nMetrics can be used not only for capturing the current state o

 he initiatives and technologies that are suitable to help the planet will 
 be long running and require perseverance to complete as well as verificati
 on of their effectiveness\, direction and expected future progress. Metric
 s can be used to take an inventory of current achievements and give an ind
 ication on the expected future trajectory\, i.e. forecast what is still to
  come.\n\nThis talk will demonstrate how lagging and leading metrics can b
 e used to provide valuable information on progress achieved in sustainabil
 ity projects as well as expectation for future progress\, helping to keep 
 motivation for continuation high.\n\nSpeaker(s): Ronald Hasenberger\, \n\n
