In 1925 Denmark Radio began. Denmark Radio broadcasted Radio waves for 26 Years. In 1951 Denmark Radio started to transmit Television Information. This television information was called DR1. Since 1996, Denmark Radio has increased their television information. Denmark Radio has live Internet Broadcasts and streams audio and video information. Denmark Radio has been providing service practically since the infancy of telecommunications. A wide range of technologies have been used in the past 80 years.

Denmark Radio has managed to keep up with the demand of public interest by increasing the amount of information that can be received, transmitted, streamed or obtained. This has lead to the development of multiple mediums of communication. These communication mediums give the viewers a choice of different types of service. Denmark Radio is an independent, licence financed public institution. Denmark Radio operates with in the Danish government regulations. Also, Denmark Radio operates within Europe. There are many issues a broadcaster may need to consider when thinking about sustainability.

These were discovered. The implementing, maintaining and meeting of demands for new technologies. The E-Waste internet target’s audience at home with their television, radio, home computer and mobile phone. The reusable equipment has a long life expectance or can be easily repaired. The current technology and standards are driven by the market. The recycle policies and procedures are different from place to place. The renewable energy to power these facilities and where does it come from? What is the process? It is important to know environmental effects of telecommunications and broadcast technology.

I have chosen Denmark Radio for this body of work. I was sent to Denmark Radio by my previous employer to perform system analysis. The new facility was ¾ constructed. I performed system repairs and modifications during my 2 site visits. I worked with network engineers to complete network analysis to successfully connect real time systems to function on Denmark Radio’s network. This happened by implementing changes to Denmark Radios network design protocols and performing system modifications. I have been to several pro broadcasting facilities this year.

This body of work will use primary and secondary sources to gather research. The primary sources will be based on information from employees of the organisation of Denmark Radio or The Danish people. The secondary sources will be the internet, magazines and articles related to Denmark Radio and the broadcast industry.

This body of work will apply a Qualitative Technique. This technique will determine key ideas? This body of work will expand on these key ideas? This body of work will discuss the technology being used and why?

This research will compare broadcast facilities policies and procedures regarding sustainable development. The broadcast facilities will be in different countries inside and outside of Europe.

Guidelines and restrictions enforced by local Government and International Government law regarding sustainable development will be determined. This will enable an overall comparison of Denmark Radio’s sustainable development responsibilities. This will be achieved by secondary sources.

Equipment specifications and equipment life expectance will be researched using primary and secondary sources. The manufacturers of the equipment used will be researched. This will show Denmark Radio’s design and approach in the new facilities concept and construction.

A survey will be taken to determine an average opinion on the key points and Denmark Radio’s facilities. This survey will be a primary source of information.

Consumption reports will be researched. This will give understanding into the supply and demand of the Danish people. This will give some insight on the growth and sustainability of Denmark Radios facilities. This will be achieved by secondary sources.

The research will look at Denmark’s sustainable development policies for the country. This research will look at environmental reports, recycle and reuse production and policies. This will be achieved by secondary sources.

The requirements of a broadcasting licence will be researched. This will be achieved by secondary sources. The service contract between Denmark Radio and Government will be addressed.

This research will identify components with high toxic levels. It is important to consider the components inner making to determine materials being used and their toxic levels. How harmful are the materials being produced and used within the electronic Manufacturer’s circuitry. This will be done by primary sources and secondary sources.

The research should explain the Danish commitments to the European Telecommunications Network Operators Association.(ETNO’s).
Also, should discuss the Danish IT Industry Association, Environmental committees, networks and forums.

This research will look into environmental approved reuse and recycle for electronic circuitry companies environmental reports.

The research will look at information relating to total television and computer growth rate over the last and next 5o years.

This research will look at information to determine the amount of natural resources left on the planet. The research will determine the amount of time to consume all our natural resources. The research will look at global consumption based on production rates currently used.

The research will use primary and secondary resources to gather information from Environmentalist groups. The research will raise awareness towards potential hazards. This research will look into the potential hazards.

Is Pro Broadcaster “Denmark Radio” implementing and maintaining sustainable technology?

This question can be answer through research.
