About this listen

Rishi Vaish, VP and CTO of IBM Sustainability Software takes us through Sustainability by the Numbers to give us context and scope of the impact of climate change and why we need to act now. Rishi also gives concrete examples of what we can do to make a difference.

In addition, he has a call to action for Site Reliability Engineers - from questions to get us to think of sustainability from the start, as well as considerations to be more sustainable from our roles.

For example:

  • what is your take on sustainability as it relates to energy footprint and efficiency?
  • do you know how many of your development environments are running when no-one is using it?
