Sustainable solutions for our digital dependency
Cloud computing does not take place in the sky.
Gigantic data centers are popping up all around us, home to new AI services and BitCoin mining operations that consume more energy than the entire country of the Netherlands annually.
Code using Python & Java (the most popular) can use up to 45x times as much energy as other programming languages.
Whether you are a programmer or user, our dependence on all this processing power is creating a new energy competition between our homes / businesses and our digital lives.
What are some examples for sustainable development? Join us April 18th where we talk to industry pioneers that are developing serious solutions to solve our addiction to energy.
