W3C's Sustainability Lead @tzviya and @AlexDawsonUK were interviewed by Chris Adams on the Environment Variables on "Shaping Web Sustainability with the W3C" Tzviya noted "We want to be able to. tell people using our work, this is the best way that you can implement something in your product or service because the evidence shows that this will have the greatest impact in terms of sustainability." #sustainablity Hear more at:

Shaping Web Sustainability with the W3C

In this episode of Environment Variables, host Chris Adams dives into the evolving landscape of sustainable web development with Alexander Dawson and Tzviya Siegman from the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C). Dawson and Siegman discuss the W3C’s efforts to develop Web Sustainability Guidelines (WSG), a comprehensive set of evidence-based practices aimed at reducing the environmental impact of web technologies. They explore the creation and potential impact of these guidelines, especially as global interest grows in embedding sustainable practices within web standards. The episode also covers the challenges of driving adoption across public and private sectors, the role of testability in sustainability guidelines, and future directions for standards that minimize digital carbon footprints. This engaging conversation provides listeners with insights into how W3C’s sustainability initiatives could shape the future of the web.

@greenfediverse I understand your focus is on the energy that powers servers... do you know of references about the efficiency of software? I mean the resource usage of them. For example, AFAIK, gotosocial < akkoma < pixelfed < mastodon in regards to resource usage. Where could I get more info about this? Would be neat to have a certification/check of efficiency (for example, RAM or CPU per user) for software platforms. Thanks!

Warum KI viel Wasser und Strom braucht

Bei einem Gespräch mit zehn bis 50 Fragen an einen Chatbot werden 500 Milliliter Wasser verbraucht. Denn hinter den KI-Anwendungen stehen Rechenzentren - und die sind durstig. Und Strom brauchen sie auch. Von Constanze Fett.
