How green is our e-learning ?

Although classroom training declined from 76 percent in 2001 to 65 percent in 2006 according to ASTD’s 2007 State of the Industry Report, it still makes up the majority of learning hours delivered and has the biggest impact on the environment in the areas of travel, facilities and materials.

Travel is typically the biggest greenhouse gas (GHG) contributor. Using www.atmosfair.com, you can, for example, quickly find out that a 5,000-mile roundtrip flight from San Diego to New York generates 2.2 tons of CO2.

Facilities include training rooms as well as the accommodation of learners. To determine your classroom footprint, use the Massachusetts Institute of Technology’s (MIT) Building Technology Program online simulator that calculates total energy consumption and CO2 emissions.
A classroom that holds about 20 learners and is occupied during the week from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. would generate one ton of CO2 per year in San Diego and 1.7 tons in New York, mainly due to cooling and heating. According to Greenlodge.org, the average hotel stay generates 44 pounds per person per night.

Materials typically consist of printed manuals or handouts. A course with 20 participants where each receives a binder with 100 sheets results in the use of 2,000 sheets or four reams of paper, which equals a quarter of an average tree. This single course would generate 60 pounds of CO2. Check your paper usage impact here.

If that course (cited in the report) can be moved online, it not only saves about 1200 tons of CO2, but also more than $1 million in travel cost alone.

This is well worth an increase of the e-learning budget.
