Dear colleagues,
in the spirit of cooperation between similar technical communities,
please find here an announcement for a new IAB Technical Program:
"Environmental Impacts of Internet Technology (EIMPACT) Program"

Program Description:
The E-Impact Program is a venue for discussing environmental impacts
and sustainability of Internet technology. Within this scope, the
program looks at trends, issues, improvement opportunities, ideas, best
practices, and subsequent direction of work related to Internet
technology, architecture, and operations, including visibility and
efficiency on energy and other environmentally-impacting attributes. In
particular, the group focuses on Internet architecture's role in these
topics.
The program targets topics not yet progressed into concrete standards
or research efforts in the IETF or IRTF while also being a coordination
point for work across multiple WGs/RGs, and a venue to highlight
ongoing work in the IETF/IRTF as well as external SDOs. The program
will use the existing E-Impact mailing list [2] as the venue for
discussions.
The program's progress and the quality of discussion may point to the
need to organize additional workshop(s) to continue the 2022 IAB
workshop on the Environmental Impact of Internet Applications and
Systems [1].
The program may work on documents that analyze areas where Internet
technology faces challenges related to the program's topics or provide
architectural guidance. Potential examples of such documents include
ones that describe sustainable network architectures, and those that
document tradeoffs between environmental impacts and other
characteristics such as performance and availability. Publishing any
document as an RFC will be at the discretion of the IAB.
The program intends to have regular virtual meetings along with
periodic hybrid meetings that are co-located with in-person IETF
meetings. The program is open to all interested participants, and its
meetings will be publicly announced.
