Cloud Computing

                      • Cloud computing is not necessarily better
                      • Efficient != Sustainable
                      • 4% of global emissions by 2020
                      • 1 AWS m1.xlarge server = 1 person
                      • Where does the power come from?

The Cleanweb
                        Manifesto


Sunday, 17 March 13
We know that as a species, we are
                         hitting the limits, in resources,
                        pollution, and our impact on the
                          natural world. We know that
                         exponential growth in a closed
                      system is dangerous. We know that
                       we must reduce the impact of our
                          society immediately or face
                          widespread systemic failure.


Sunday, 17 March 13
As makers and entrepreneurs, our
                   task is to make these constraints
                 work for us, and use our creativity to
                 deliver progress without the costs we
                  previously accepted as a side effect
                              of our work.



Sunday, 17 March 13
We have very little time, but we have
                   an incredibly powerful tool at our
                disposal. We have to apply the power
                of the web to make change happen at
                   all levels of society, transforming
                    businesses, governments, and
                      citizens on a massive scale.



Sunday, 17 March 13
Beginning today, we will dedicate
                  ourselves to this mission. We will
                 work on projects with true meaning,
                that make the future a better place to
                be, rather than creating illusory short-
                              term value.



Sunday, 17 March 13
We hope you will join us. We have a
                              lot of work to do.
