Planet Earth as our Stakeholder
summary
Asks teams whether the planet is a stakeholder, runs a planet retrospective and applies green software patterns and simple process changes like adding carbon to epic templates and the definition of done, using Azure emissions dashboard or AWS dashboards to measure progress. Cites IT as ~4% of global emissions now, potentially 8% by 2030 and 14% by 2040, and the target of 55% reduction by 2030. Gives one case: 40% footprint reduction after decommissioning a stale test environment and running small sprints.
