Climate change is the most pressing challenge presented this century to businesses, government and individuals alike. With atmospheric carbon dioxide levels exceeding 380 parts per million in just the last few decades, when for the past 10,000 years these levels have remained fairly constant at 280 part per million, the question for global warming and its drastic potential consequences on climate, food and water resources, species diversity and energy is no longer an academic debate, but a survival debate. These levels are projected to exceed 580 parts per million by mid-century if left unchecked. There is no longer any question that the increase of carbon dioxide from human activity is increasing our planet’s temperature and affecting climate. In China alone, a full sized coal-burning power plant is set on-line every week to keep pace with its growing economy. India is not far behind. Deforestation contributes more to the total carbon dioxide produced by every car, truck, ship, airplane and train on the planet.

With these incredible challenges come some unique business opportunities for the development and deployment of clean, abundant sources of energy. In just the last few decades, Denmark has gone from 70% of its energy production form imported oil to 0%, employing solar, wind and other sources of clean energy. Remarkably, Denmark’s unemployment rate is on the lowest of all industrialized countries. Sound energy policies can yield unprecedented business growth and employment in alternative energy.

Key to seizing this business opportunity is technical innovation, not the least of which is business software and its automations. For over two decades, SCS had dedicated its software deployments to assist companies sharing this vision of sustainability. Microsoft Dynamics Navision provides a unique platform for local and global alternative energy companies.
