Make your IT systems the solution to climate change rather than the cause. More and more we’re relying on an ever-increasing number of different computer types and services, powerful smartphones, and cloud data centers. All of this carries with it a carbon footprint and a negative impact on the environment, and your business or organization will come under increasing scrutiny and criticism from customers, stakeholders, and governments. It doesn’t have to be this way though, and with the right information, some careful planning, and the sensible use of different technologies, you could be helping both the planet and people worldwide and in your local communities. With this guide, author Mike Halsey gives you the information you need to head towards a sustainable, carbon-neutral or even carbon-negative future. This second edition discusses the impact of the latest technologies, including SoC (System on a Chip) PCs, and Artificial Intelligence (AI). It details how these technologies can help your business achieve its climate goals, and what challenges are involved, especially with the enormous power consumption of AI in the cloud.
