Industry experts highlight the critical need for carbon accounting and energy measurement, noting that enterprise AI usage often scales without sufficient visibility into its resource consumption or water stress. The collection profiles practical solutions, such as FinOps for carbon, offshore data centres cooled by seawater, and hardware innovations designed to improve performance per watt. Strategic insights warn of the Jevons Paradox, where efficiency gains drive increased demand, potentially undermining corporate climate commitments. Furthermore, the text introduces various frameworks and ecolabels intended to combat greenwashing and foster responsible digital governance. Ultimately, the contributors advocate for a shift toward green software engineering, where environmental impact is treated as a core design principle rather than a secondary concern.
