Vincent Picavet@hobu @rjhale1971 @GeoDon Aside from the "getting old" and "family time" arguments which I totally share, there also is the environmental impact that should definitely be taken into account.
Having hundreds of people flying to conferences to attend the equivalent of a few hours of talks is not durable. We ( and #OSGeo namely ) should favor local events more, as well as hybrid events.
At @oslandia for example, we try to find less carbonated ways of communicating.

Moyen sympathique de réduire l'empreinte carbon des spectacles, d'économiser des sous et de faire un bout de chemin ensemble. (moi je triche, j'y vais en vélo 🚲 )

Dr. Karine GADRE[#Abstractions - Episode 1] #AbtractPhotography offers the possibility of observing #nature, the surrounding #landscapes, from a new perspective, under a different light - while mastering its #CarbonImpact.
The result is a new series called “Abstractions”. Ultimately, it will be made up of numerous shots taken in familiar locations - less than 15 km from the city of #Revel (Occitanie region, France): https://www.culturediff.org/english/ocabstract1.htm

What You Can Do as a Web Builder on Earth Day
One easy thing you can do for the earth is not use “AI” tools. Consider this as a programmer, web developer, web designer, copywriter, webmaster, etc. The tools include anything branded as generative AI, LLMs, computer vision tools, Copilot, ChatGPT, Bard, Grok, Dall-e, Midjourney, and so on. If you are…

I find it nice that PKP Intercity, the main Polish railway company, informs you on the ticket how much CO2 your journey produced, and that it is much less than if you took the journey by car or plane.

bs2> A #ClimateStory we.. need is one that exposes who is.. responsible for climate chaos. It’s been popular to say that we are all responsible, but Oxfam reports that over the past 25 years, the #CarbonImpact of the top 1% of the wealthiest human beings was twice that of the bottom 50%, so responsibility for the impact and the capacity to make change is currently distributed very unevenly.

KoraTrying to assess #CarbonImpact of a remote organisation's video conferencing – anyone can recommend tools? I came across this blog and associated #CarbonCalculator https://davidmytton.blog/zoom-video-conferencing-energy-and-emissions/
Is there something more appropriate for using at scale? Is there a person/meeting-hour CO2e for Zoom for example? Which teleconferencing services are most transparent about the impact of using their tools?
