Being green means a different thing for everyone. What is your definition of that?
Some significant initiatives I heard or tried include:
- Planting trees after a great success
- Riding bike to work, instead of a public transport
- Not using your camera in [put your favorite remote software here] meetings
- Turning off the cloud instance, you don't use
What's something you tried and recommend me trying with my teams?

@bogomep The framework created by We Fight Climate Change is useful. Here's how one of the companies mentioned in this thread (Klima) is using it: https://wtca.lfca.earth/e/klima
e.g.: switch to veggie catering. Other options halfway down the page include sustainable banking/pensions.
Another useful resource is the website carbon calculator by Wholegrain Digital, a certified B Corp: https://www.websitecarbon.com/
The founder, Tom Greenwood, also wrote a book about Sustainable Web Design https://abookapart.com/products/...

You should def review Klima (https://klima.com) on this subject. They have pretty neat solutions for individuals and companies to offset their carbon footprint.

@boraoztunc Giving money to support climate positive change is one of the measures. I am interested in more options. Any thoughts?

Consuming lesser electricity in general, being aware of your actions on how they add up to carbon emissions is very important.

@mishra_mayank Yeah, but how do you do it while you are at work?

Being green means to us to minimize our digital carbon footprint. This is why we created a tool that allows other developers to measure and reduce their website's CO2 emissions. If you're interested in this topic too, check out GreenFrame: https://www.producthunt.com/post...
