Software shouldn’t cost the world

why

Why does sustainable software engineering matter?

Legislatively, socially, professionally and personally, more of us are committed to going down a few sizes in our carbon footprint–and re:cinq is committed to doing that by helping companies reduce their IT-related carbon emissions.

what

What is sustainable software engineering?

What do you see when you look across the landscape of your organisation’s software?
Is it energy-conscious, environment-aware and eco-friendly?
Or power-draining, money-wasting and resource-sapping?

On its own, software doesn’t consume energy or emit harmful discharge. The problems arise with how it’s made, how we use it and how we discontinue it–and it’s in our power to do that better.

Sustainable software engineering dives deep into software practices, architecture, hosting, hardware and resourcing that will generate fewer greenhouse gas emissions to support The Paris Agreement and Fit for 55.
