• On Announcing the Green Tech Hackathon by Vesna Manojlovic

In the meantime, I received comments from the (Mastodon) community, that are worth adding to this page: * this hackathon is explicitly NOT about web3 / NFT / Blockchain / DAO / Generative "AI" * one of the desired & expected outcomes is ALSO: "patches / bug fixes in existing green software" This would emphasize the importance of maintenance of existing infrastructure, next to the development of new solutions. (suggested by Joost van Baal-Ilić ) * here are some additional interesting possible data sources: https://gijn.org/stories/exposing-money-behind-environmental-destruction-investigating-investors/

• On Computing Within Limits 2023 by Vesna Manojlovic

Recent addition to the chapter about academic travel: art installation "Travel Less Without Loss" by École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne, illustrating in 3D the discrepancies between the Paris Agreement goals (yearly, 2T) and average Swiss citizen emissions (14T); and between train trips vs. flight emissions. https://actu.epfl.ch/news/outdoor-exhibition-highlights-the-impact-of-academ/ They also say: "I believe that as scientists, and as members of an academic institution like EPFL more generally, we have a civic duty to sound the public alarm.” This sounds very similar to my own experience: "Changing our travel practices is anything but child’s play. It involves making hard, carefully considered choices. The idea isn’t simply to give up traveling altogether, which can have serious repercussions for a person’s academic career. Instead, it’s about combining trips, deciding not to travel when we don’t need to, taking the train when possible,"... since I did not take any flights since end-2018.
