- Abstract
The paper contributes to an evergreen discussion on the environmental impact of technological progress. It focuses on the technologies of digital transformation, which offer the prospect of bringing about a new techno-economic paradigm. Systematic mapping of the literature is applied and the arguments of technology-optimistic and pessimistic environmental economists listed and analysed. The main research question is whether digital transformation induces a new paradigm from a sustainability point of view. The author argues that digital technologies certainly allowed a greater leap forward, but the prediction of Carlota Perez about the advent of a "green global golden age" is exaggerated: environmental sustainability is not on the threshold yet.
