We’re so glad you’re here. The Green Software Foundation is a non-profit with the mission to build a trusted ecosystem of people, standards, tooling, and best practices for green software. We define green software as software that is carbon-efficient software, meaning it emits the least carbon possible.
Everything you read from this point forward will support your engagement with the foundation. We’re sharing everything – resources, links and contact information to help you contribute your knowledge, time and skills to support the foundation’s activities and build momentum towards green software.
Before diving into our Working Groups and Projects, join us on LinkedIn, Twitter and subscribe to our weekly newsletter.
Work in Progress
This new knowledge base isn’t complete.
