Why sustainable digital research matters
Instructor Note
To make the audience reflect a little bit before diving into the content, run a poll with the following questions:
- What do you think the main contributors are to the emissions of
digital research? Multiple choice or open question, depending on how
close we want answers to be. If a multiple choice question, the options
could be:
- Manufacture of physical devices (laptops, servers, etc)
- Running jobs in high performance computing facilities
- Developing and running software locally in laptops and workstations
- Using AI to assist research and everyday tasks
- Using cloud resources (cloud storage, continuous integration services, etc)
- What comes to mind when thinking about mindful computing? Open question.
