About

There is a consensus in the sustainable computing community that understanding the carbon footprint of computing is vital. Despite this, wide-spread adoption of emissions monitoring has not yet been realised. In this interactive session, we will share recent work from STFC's Scientific Computing Department which has focused on measuring and reporting user carbon emissions in different contexts, as well as plans for an upcoming NetDRIVE-supported (https://uknetdrive.org/) community project to develop training materials on this topic. We will invite participants to discuss existing initiatives, share experiences, and help identify key education gaps and barriers with respect to adopting emissions monitoring tools. The aim of this session will be to consolidate ideas to maximise the impact of future training courses and materials for all stakeholders across compute infrastructure.
