Code + data = energy = carbon emissions.

It’s not just a matter of choosing the most efficient or renewable cloud provider. And in the case of the majority of organizations as multi-cloud users, relying on cloud providers to be greener isn't always an option.

Fortunately, cloud users can take matters into their own hands. By implementing a green cloud strategy and considering physical infrastructure as well as the virtual systems that run on it, IT teams can reduce their resource use, energy consumption and carbon emissions.
