In a new survey of 1,039 GitHub users conducted by GitHub and the Yale Program on Climate Change Communication, we found:
• 80% were interested in tools for writing more energy-efficient code
• 78% wanted to learn best practices for reducing software’s environmental footprint
• 74% wanted ways to measure the environmental impact of their software or development process
Developers want more efficient software. What many lack is a clear way to find waste, measure improvements, and make the case for fixing it.
There’s an opportunity to turn that interest into normal engineering work. 💡
