Climate change is a global phenomenon of large-scale transformation of the Earth’s climate, resulting mainly from human activities, such as the emission of greenhouse gases, deforestation and rapid urbanization. This is a major threat to the planet and life as we know it. Climate change manifests itself through phenomena such as rising global temperatures, melting glaciers, rising sea levels, extreme weather events and disruption of ecosystems.
In this urgent quest to mitigate the impacts of climate change, it is essential to take a hard look at how our technological advances, particularly digital, are contributing to this global crisis. While digital technology has brought countless benefits to our society, it is also true that our growing reliance on digital technologies has created a substantial environmental footprint. This footprint has become an important subject of concern, highlighting the need to develop responsible digital technology capable of actively contributing to the fight once morest climate change. To combat this change several Actions were implemented in different areas.
Responsible digital technology and housing
At the residential level, smart buildings have been set up, these buildings are equipped with IoT (internet of things) which allows it to be regulated according to the needs of the building, when a room is empty the temperature is regulated in relation to heating needs. When a building object such as the pipes breaks the building detects the problem or, if necessary, anticipates the problem to avoid damage. As a result, the building therefore makes it possible to contribute to economies on different scales.
In different areas such as energy, digital technology also has positive effects.
Responsible digital and energy
Forecasting and optimizing renewable energy production involves using digital technologies to create advanced weather models. These models can accurately predict the availability of renewable energy sources, such as wind and solar, in advance. This anticipation is crucial to effectively plan energy production from these sources, thus ensuring optimal use of resources and contributing to the transition to cleaner and more sustainable energy.
