In the face of growing environmental concerns, the tech industry is increasingly recognizing the importance of sustainable practices. With carbon emissions growing at a substantial rate, and with the introduction of power-hungry AI, we need to utilise every avenue possible to reduce our industry emissions. Imagine the impact if every developer reduced the energy consumption of our applications by just a few percent!

In this talk we will start by diving into the impact our industry is having on the planet. Then we will talk about what we can do as engineers to reduce our carbon emissions, discussing green coding practices that optimize software performance while reducing energy consumption. We will also cover some of the tech tools that different industries can use to reduce their carbon emissions - and consequently costs.

By the end of this talk, you will be equipped with practical knowledge and actionable strategies to make your coding practices more eco-friendly. Armed with knowledge of the different tools available to help this mission, you can help pave the way for a more sustainable tech industry.
