Hi, We are mostly talking about reducing the number of IETF meetings as three meetings represents on average 12 673 tonnes of CO2 / year. It is measurable. It is a main source of upstream emissions in corporate organizations (see [1]). We have a direct impact on it. It is a direct offset and it shows the path to other organizations. I do agree that we need to focus on the solutions that have the most potential. This is especially where offset can be challenged and the reason to publish a sustainability and corporate responsibility report for the IETF - as did Ericsson recently for example [1]. As a side comment, the evocation of the kerosene lamps - at the shmoo meeting resonated with me a bit with a 1000'nish wealthy people asking 1.3 billion of (poor) people to replace their lamp so we can travel. I would like to clarify that the intent was to illustrate that one needs to focus where it has the most impact. The potential that protocol represents remains to be shown. I am happy that those raising such assertions share their data, publications. So far - as mentioned in the session - my understanding is that most emissions come from the extraction, manufacturing and transport of the products. As a result, I am relatively not optimistic on the impact of a section "Carbon emissions considerations" - but happy to be wrong.
