Conferencing and collaboration technologies – audio, web and video – save time and money, and help organizations reduce their carbon footprints. We all know that. However during the campaign prior to yesterday’s national election in Canada, it has become an issue.
“We in Richmond should be working with YVR to develop a sustainability strategy, leading to an 85% reduction in overall emissions by 2040. All aviation fuel should carry both a regular fuel tax and the carbon tax, with higher taxes paid for high altitude and night flights – because their nitrous oxide emissions have greater negative impacts. Our government should be installing video-conferencing facilities in every community larger then 1,000 people by 2015, where meetings and conferences will be free of GST. As an elected MP or city councillor, I will commit to reduce travel costs (economical and environmental) by encouraging constituents to meet by video-link when unable to meet me in person.” So said Michael Wolfe, the Green Party MP candidate in Richmond, BC during a candidates’ forum on CKNW radio last week.
Not only is this candidate a proponent for the green aspects of <a rel=”nofollow” onclick=”javascript:_gaq.push(['_trackPageview', '/outgoing/article_exit_link']);” href=”http://www.momentumconferencing.com/”>Audio Conferencing</a> versus air travel, but he also advocated national tax incentives to encourage businesses to increase their use of videoconferencing. Although his party did not prevail in the election, Mr. Wolfe’s comments – with which, by the way, the other candidates in the forum agreed – there is no doubt that this type of thinking and action will prevail in the not too distant future.
Early adopters can rightfully take pride in their organizations’ commitment not only to the real dollar savings in increased use of conferencing technology versus travel, but also to their significant contributions to a greener corporate world.

There are numerous conference call service providers to be found for businesses or even personal use. The problem becomes choosing the right one that suits your situation. Phone conferencing can be a great money saver as well as an easy means of communicating to more than two people.
The first step is to understand your needs. What will you be using the conferencing service for? A business meeting with clients in Europe? Conducting a Bible study with friends? Having a family conversation with relatives in another state? This is important because there are several plans to choose from to find the one that best fits your needs. There are conference plans that include long-distance calls and web conferencing. Other plans take the number of callers into consideration, ranging from the maximum of 96 up to 200 callers.
The next thing to consider is if conferencing over the Internet or through the phone is preferred. VoIP or Voice over Internet Protocol-based services offer conferencing through the Web. All you need is a Web camera and Internet access. However, video feed loss, static, and pop-up advertisements are some of the drawbacks to VoIP conferencing. With PSTN, or public switched telephone network, phone conference providers need only a telephone and a conference bridge, which the provider maintains. Though it may sound like old technology, PSTN is now using digital systems for phone conferencing.
The last thing to consider is budget. Basically, this means checking how much you can afford to pay monthly or yearly for a conferencing service. This, however, is no longer a key concern as there are numerous providers that offer free conferencing. More often than not, the only things that need to be paid for are the standard long distance fees. Once these have all been taken into consideration, your company or your family can begin finding the right service provider.
