description The information society is built upon an important technological ground. Its operation requires an IT infrastructure that has been growing during the last decades. In parallel, climate change looms over the future of the planet as a disturbing threat, which demands a social and political response. The widespread perception about technology considers that its environmental impact is scarce. This paper discusses this perception, completing for this purpose a bibliographical review about the negative effects that technological production, consumption and waste produce on the environment in which our societies are developed: this issue has received scant attention to date from the Academe.

Su funcionamiento requiere una infraestructura informática que ha ido creciendo durante las últimas décadas. En paralelo, el cambio climático se cierne sobre el futuro del planeta como una amenaza inquietante, que demanda una respuesta social y política. La percepción generalizada sobre la tecnología considera que su impacto medioambiental es escaso. Este trabajo discute esa percepción, completando para ello una revisión bibliográfica acerca de los efectos negativos que tiene la producción, el consumo y los residuos tecnológicos sobre el medio ambiente en que se desarrollan nuestras sociedades, una cuestión que ha recibido escasa atención hasta la fecha desde la Academia.A sociedade da informação se constrói sobre uma importante base tecnológica. Seu funcionamento requer uma infraestrutura informática que mantém uma taxa constante de crescimento durante as últimas décadas. Paralelamente, as mudanças climáticas surgem no futuro do planeta como uma ameaça perturbadora, que exige uma resposta social e política. A percepção generalizada sobre a tecnologia considera que o impacto ambiental é escasso. Este trabalho discute essa percepção tanto por meio de uma revisão da literatura quanto por meio de um debate sobre os efeitos negativos da produção, consumo e impacto dos resíduos tecnológicos no meio ambiente, uma questão que tem recebido pouca atenção até à data da Academia.CIESPAL2017-12-31info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://revistachasqui.org/index.php/chasqui/article/view/332110.16921/chasqui.v0i136.3321Chasqui.
