J'ai eu le plaisir de participer à la préparation d'un épisode du podcast , dédié à l'impact environnemental du numérique. Cet épisode évoque l'impact spécifique de l'industrie du jeu vidéo, et montre que des initiatives commencent à se faire jour, mais aussi tout ce qui reste à accomplir.

#48 - Greening the video game industry with Ben Abraham and Maria Wagner

3 billion gamers worldwide, billions of devices, terabytes of data streamed, the gaming industry comes with pretty big numbers starting with its $455 billion sales in 2023. Is its environmental footprint as big? (Not) fun fact, not a single executive in this sector could answer the question. A new non-profit initiative, the Sustainable Gaming Alliance, is trying to get these numbers right and to equip the industry with the right framework. Its Managing Director, Maria Wagner, and its Research and Standard lead, Dr Benjamin Abraham joined this Green IO episode where great insights were shared on: 👿 The periodic table of torture for gaming device, 🖼️ The Gaming industry dependency on graphics to boost its sales 🕹️ Why “this game is beautiful” should be replaced as a praise by “this game is so enjoyable” 📋 Why GHG protocol is not adapted to the gaming industry 🌋 How to shake up a multi-billions industry in 10 weeks ? 🔄 Why the project mode in the game industry - and elsewhere? - doesn’t help a GreenOps culture to flourish 😴 Energy consumption at idle state
