They also examine the growing energy demands of AI and data centers, discuss the role of policy and awareness in driving change, and reflect on why practical tools and real-world examples are essential for turning sustainability goals into everyday engineering decisions.\nLearn more about our people:\nKate Goldenring: LinkedIn | Website\nTzviya Siegman: LinkedIn | Website\n\nFind out more about the GSF:\nThe Green Software Foundation Website \nSign up to the Green Software Foundation Newsletter\n\nNews:\nIntroducing GSF Reference Implementations | Green Software Foundation [04:13]\nAn update on SCI for Web - a new standard for measuring software carbon intensity for the Web - Green Web Foundation [11:59] \nWeb Sustainability Guidelines (WSG) [13:27]\nScotland’s ‘green datacentres’ policy ignores emissions impact of AI, analysis shows | The Guardian [20:04]\nMore than 100 UK datacentres plan to burn gas to generate electricity | The Guardian [21:11] \nNew Gas-Powered Data Centers Could Emit More Greenhouse Gases Than Entire Nations | WIRED [24:46]\nGoogle, Meta, Microsoft, Amazon back new data center tech accelerator | Latitude Media [26:41] \n\nResources:\nSoftware Carbon Intensity (SCI) Specification | GSF [03:05]\nEV Ep145: Is Using LLMs for Tech Standards Work Actually Greener?
