Sustainability

“If we want to avoid this new gulf between information rich and information poor, between the connected and the unconnected, we have just simply got to get everybody connected to the internet and make sure they are sharing in this information rich age.” He added: “I want to give this all the support I can… to make Britain the most connected, the most wired up, the most digitally-advanced country there can be.” (David Cameron) http://www.number10.gov.uk/news/topstorynews/2010/07/pm-backs-race-online-2012-campaign-53250
