The #Carbon #Footprint of #ArtificialIntelligence (AI) is substantial and growing due to the energy-intensive processes involved in training and deploying AI models, particularly large language models (LLMs).
Training a single AI model can emit a large amount of CO2, equivalent to the emissions of multiple cars over their lifetime.

Slovakosaurops - a new ichnogenus that does not exist! April Fool's, everyone! I'm sorry if I disappointed you.
Slovakia does have dinosaur footprints, just... not this one. :)

There's a saying, "leave nothing but footprints" or some such, if enough of us do it would be a nightmare.
Introducing... the LivTours Sustainability Collective Monthly Update
As a tour operator, we care about our #footprint and are committed to #sustainable tourism. We've integrated green practices since our inception, but we recently set up a dedicated LivTours Sustainability Collective to drive these efforts further.
Each month, we’ll share our progress. Here are our actions from February including what our owners Angelo & Kristin are doing to move us toward a more sustainable future!
#mastohelp I'm trying to push in my company to measure our carbon footprint (what I'd really like is to create a way to have a continuous estimate, but also a snapshot would be fine).
I'm no expert at all and would definitely need some external help.
Did any of you go through the same process and could provide me with a rough estimate of the cost of the process?
Lesson learned: Always triple-check your footprints.
I designed the footprints for the audio jacks from the datasheets.
Then, when the items arrived, I made sure the measurements were fine.
Now the boards arrived - and the footprints are mirrored
Well, now they have to go on the underside the PCBs. Looks fine, too.

We would halve #methane emissions from North America if we cut cattle by half
A most efficient path would be to target #USA because the headcount is biggest and because each bovine emits most if bred the American way. Same as in Brazil: https://mas.to/@maugendre/113992940508282754

Greenhouse gas from livestock digestion in Equatorial Climates
Along the Equator, it mainly is sheep and bovines that account for methane emissions.
The biggest producers are Ethiopia and Sudan (South Sudan included).
Reference: #GreenHouseForcing http://data.yt/
#Cattle husbandry emits #greenhouse gas.
For example:
* South America and the Indian subcontinent breed most bovines who emit most methane.
* China and the Middle East produce too much livestock methane in regard to their bovine headcounts.
Emissions of #methane from livestock digestion per world region:
(4/4) Ammonia #emissions, a key contributor to air #pollution, originate mostly from #manure management in animal husbandry; its energy-intensive nature (incl. machinery & fertilizers) contributes substantially to the overall carbon #footprint of animal-based food production: https://doi.org/10.1016/j.crsust.2025.100281
(2/x) For the carbon #footprint, lower #meat consumption in preschools was offset by higher #dairy intake. Only four #children had #diets below the #carbon impact limit, three of which followed #vegetarian diets. The #environment impact of animal production is substantial: https://doi.org/10.1016/j.crsust.2025.100281
