Important 15 minute talk by Roberta Haseleu about #GreenCoding, #GreenWeb and existing Carbon Website Calculator tools. 👏 @fershad also pointed out some of the challenges in the past. I really hope this conversation will continue! Link to the recording and more resources:

Wow, busy week in #greenerWebDev channel of https://climateaction.tech/ slack. #GreenWeb #GreenCoding

"Fooled by the Website Carbon Calculator. Green Coding & Measuring the Environmental Impacts of IT" is on my watch list. 📺 https://media.ccc.de/v/camp2023-57725-fooled_by_the_website_carbon_calculator

📝Kurz gebloggt: "Der Weg zu einem klimaneutralen Internet" https://matthias-andrasch.eu/2023/der-weg-zu-einem-klimaneutralen-internet/?s=1 #greenweb

Event: How Much of the internet is covered by #NetZero targets?

Volunteers sought for new #datamapping #greenweb project from @mrchrisadams & the #GreenWebFoundation & #WikiRate to identify which hosting/infrastructure providers are serious about their Net Zero targets and who's #greenwashing.

Just learned via @Ansimorph that there is also a 🇦🇹 local-austria channel next to the 🇩🇪local-germany channel on https://climateaction.tech/ slack (none for switzerland yet).

Please join these channels if you're in tech and interested in #GreenWeb & co! 🌱 https://climateaction.tech/

Boosts appreciated 🙌

One thing currently "triggering" me in #webdev world is that a lot of flights and emissions are caused for three or one day conferences. What's the plan here for climate neutral #webdev & #opensource? 🌱🌏 #sustainablewebdesign #greenweb

Website carbon impact being reported within webpagetest?? Yooj if true 💚

#TIL about https://www.imagecarbon.com - a site that checks the images on your website, and gives estimates for their carbon emissions and suggestions for how to improve. Oh, and its open source: https://github.com/colbyfayock/imagecarbon

I'm always looking for ways to help make my websites more sustainable, but I'm definitely not an expert in image optimizations. This is a great way for me to learn more about #SustainableWebDesign and #GreenWeb practices

It’s interesting how big of an overlap they see between sustainability and accessibility.

Quelques progrès à faire encore pour réduire la taille de la page, la complexité du DOM et le nombre de requêtes et peut-être atteindre la note A.

En attendant, on est assez contents de notre B (sur une échelle allant jusqu'à G), obtenu en appliquant très simplement la même démarche d'éco-conception que nous utilisons pour concevoir nos services 🌱

Oh sweet, my other #FOSDEM talk is online now.

Getting to a fossil free internet by 2030: A tour of the tech and policy changes to get us there

If you've ever thought about tech and sustainability, in 25mins, I've tried to share a model to help navigate this confusing space, point to some cool open projects, and give an overview of the policy and regulatory drivers at play influencing it.

Downloadable slides and the rest are in the link:

Yay, my website scores almost 100% on green performance (https://www.chuckhenrich.com)! My hosting service uses active green hosting practices (not just buying offsets). Also I worked on minimising data transfer & page rendering. A green website is fast - so people are more likely to explore the content. That's important for creatives with portfolios: those images can chew up a lot of carbon and don't need to. #greenweb #website #websitedesign #websitecreation #websiteadvice #websitedevelopment

I have an old #raspberrypi 2 at home. Hardware is perfectly fine, yet I'm having more and more trouble to run SW on it, not because it is to slow to run modern application, but because of "software rot".

Nobody bothers porting SW to old ARM CPU's ➡️ All my installed libraries are getting older ➡️ dependencies can no longer be met ➡️ New software can not be installed ➡️ I spend hours on workarounds

Yet I refuse to throw away perfectly working HW!
