What are the benefits of wireless technology vs. wired technology in terms of the enviroment?

What benefits does wireless technology have over wired technology in terms of the environment? Is there less energy used? Is there less material used? Please state your sources, so i can refer to them. Most detailed answer with sources gets 10 points! Please help, thanks.What are the benefits of wireless technology vs. wired technology in terms of the enviroment?
Interesting.

I guess if you want to bring in phone or internet service to some isolated community or research station that does not have it, then you can do it with radio and solar power. If you bring in wires, you'd probably have to build a service road to install and maybe maintain the cables, and roadbuilding is destructive.



Otherwise, common sense says that sending power down a cable or fibre just to where it has to go is more efficient than broadcasting it in every direction, but common sense is not always right. I think that's probably true for optical fibre, though - a satellite link needs more power than a transocean fibre.What are the benefits of wireless technology vs. wired technology in terms of the enviroment?
Wireless requires more energy than wired, so it is creating more CO2 and using more energy which will force us to find an alternate source of energy quicker. A very small electrical current is required for wired transmission while a whole magnetic field must be made for a wireless transmission. The wireless transceivers require more parts and more complex parts than wired transceivers.What are the benefits of wireless technology vs. wired technology in terms of the enviroment?
