A Paperless Global Information Environment? Introduction Desirability Feasibility Conclusion Bibliography

"The prospect of having a paperless, global information environment is about as likely as that of a paperless office - thank goodness!"

In this essay I aim to explore the desirability and feasibility of the above scenario. I will first set out the pros and cons of a hypothetical paperless global information environment, and give my own view as to whether this would be a desirable thing to achieve, and then discuss the feasibility of reaching such an environment, discussing both the social and the technical aspects that would need to be considered.
