The United Nations has declared it a &#8220;code red for humanity,&#8221; and averting a calamity will only be possible if the world takes prompt action. Predictably, investments in digital transformation are set to increase by 50% from 2022-2025, leading to a further surge in energy consumption. The increasing digitalization has made it apparent that software applications are also leaving a significant impact on the environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At the same time though digital solutions are expected to help having the right insights to decrease footprint: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.agoria.be\/en\/themes\/about-us\/agoria-news\/federal\/fifteen-digital-technologies-are-set-to-reduce-c02-by-5-times-than-the-total-digital-emissions-by-2030\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Fifteen digital technologies are set to reduce C02 by 5 times than the total digital emissions by 2030 | Agoria<\/a>&nbsp;and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.weforum.org\/agenda\/2022\/05\/how-digital-solutions-can-reduce-global-emissions\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Digital technologies can cut global emissions by 20%.

Consequently, sustainability has now become one of the top ten business priorities for CEOs, according to the 2021 Gartner CEO and Senior Business Executive Survey. As an example, France has initiated the implementation of a distinct green software legislation that will mandate companies to disclose the environmental cost of their products to both users and the government. This legislation is expected to come into effect shortly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-sustainability-some-facts-and-figures\"><strong>Sustainability &#8211; Some Facts and Figures<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>In a recent survey from IDC 83% of respondents agree <strong>sustainability is the most important criteria in IT buying decisions<\/strong>.

To decrease the carbon footprint of software, the primary measures to be taken are<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>using fewer physical resources<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>reducing energy consumption,<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>and utilizing lower-carbon energy sources.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>It&#8217;s likely that several developers don&#8217;t consider the carbon footprint or energy usage of the code they create. However, the reality is that software significantly influences energy consumption and consequently, environmental sustainability. Nonetheless, sustainable software development is expected to become an increasingly prominent topic in the future as companies search for approaches to become more eco-friendly at every layer of the technology stack, including software development and not just hardware.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The majority of hyperscalers have managed to optimize their hardware and reduce energy consumption, despite significant growth in computational demands within their datacenters. However, due to ongoing concerns about energy consumption, it is important for us to examine the software applications being run on this hardware. Every developer has a role to play in addressing climate change by implementing best practices in Sustainable Software Engineering.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>\u201cThe way we design and build our applications has a direct relationship to how much carbon they emit.
