摘要

Sellen和Harper的《无纸化办公室的神话》认为,纸张替代技术矛盾地导致了纸张消耗量的增加。我利用联合国粮食及农业组织的数据,分析了自这本重要的书出版以来的二十年里纸张消费的趋势。这些数据表明,全球纸张消费量已趋于平稳,在世界大多数地区,纸张消费量已开始下降,在某些情况下,纸张消费量在相对较短的时间内大幅下降。我认为这种逆转有两个主要原因:智能手机和移动互联网等替代技术的改进,以及个人和组织采用这些新技术和新行为的时间。

The paperless office twenty years later: Still a myth?
Abstract Sellen and Harper’s The Myth of the Paperless Office argued that paper-displacement technologies paradoxically led to a rise in paper consumption. Using data from the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization, I analyze paper-consumption trends in the twenty years since the publication of this pivotal book. These data show that globally paper consumption has leveled out and that in most regions of the world it has begun to decline, in some cases by large amounts in a relatively short period of time. I suggest that there are two primary reasons for this reversal: improved displacement technologies such as smartphones and mobile Internet and time for people and organizations to adopt these new technologies and behaviors.

期刊介绍: Sustainability: Science, Practice and Policy is a refereed, open-access journal which recognizes that climate change and other socio-environmental challenges require significant transformation of existing systems of consumption and production. Complex and diverse arrays of societal factors and institutions will in coming decades need to reconfigure agro-food systems, implement renewable energy sources, and reinvent housing, modes of mobility, and lifestyles for the current century and beyond. These innovations will need to be formulated in ways that enhance global equity, reduce unequal access to resources, and enable all people on the planet to lead flourishing lives within biophysical constraints. The journal seeks to advance scientific and political perspectives and to cultivate transdisciplinary discussions involving researchers, policy makers, civic entrepreneurs, and others. The ultimate objective is to encourage the design and deployment of both local experiments and system innovations that contribute to a more sustainable future by empowering individuals and organizations and facilitating processes of social learning.
