Hi, This maybe somewhat of a striking topic however it is one that has not really had enough attention, I feel, in a way that warrants the gravity of if ramifications. Thus, I really would like to kick this discussion into hopefully something serious and creditable that we can all think about. Also, please excuse the generality of this initial attempt as this will probably sound border line crazy talk..
As developers we spend essentially the totality of a focus on - in pretty much in following order of priority: i.) features, ii.) performance, iii.) bug fixes. However we spend no serious mental energy on how our software preforms regarding the environmental impact. Now, while it is true we do think a little about battery life and also performance, this isn't usually our highest of priorities and is somewhat an indirect method of solving the problem. I can't think of too many examples where we have actually gone really out our way to think about this problem and come up with tools to address it, apart from perhaps powertop. What do folks think, and how could we start thinking about technical ways to address this problem? Kind Regards, Edward.
