DIMPACT - DIMPACT - measuring emissions from media and digital entertainment
By Green Tech South West
UnlistedGreen Tech South West presents an online event showcasing the work of DIMPACT, with the fantastic Catherine Van Loo from Carnstone consultancy. This is especially relevant to the South West as University of Bristol Computer Science Department provided the research and technical expertise.

Reducing the emissions of serving digital media and entertainment products
The DIMPACT tool estimates the emissions associated with video streaming, online banner advertising, digital publishing, and audio streaming. The project itself convened over twenty companies from across the media, entertainment and technology sectors, all with an interest in working to reduce their digital emissions and bring transparency to consumers, business, and the sustainability community.
In this talk Catherine will run us through how the DIMPACT project came to be, the key challenges and opportunities from measuring and reducing emissions in this space, and how you can get access to the tool's methodology.
