      <abstract>
	 <t>   Reducing technology&#x27;s carbon footprint is one of the big challenges
   of our age.  Networks are an enabler of applications that reduce this
   footprint, but also contribute to this footprint substantially
   themselves.  Many of the biggest opportunities to reduce this
   footprint may not be management or even networking specific, for
   instance general power efficiency gains in hardware or deployment of
   equipment in more energy-efficient buildings.  However, methods to
   make networking technology itself &quot;greener&quot; and in particular to
   manage networks in ways that reduces their carbon footprint without
   impacting their utility also need to be explored.  This document
   outlines a corresponding set of opportunities, along with associated
   research challenges, for networking technology in general and
   management technology in particular to become &quot;greener&quot; and reduce
   network carbon footprint.
