This is the next step after the conference and the sustainable servers petition. We'll be working closely with @HertfordshireCS to create a responsible technology development module for their CS MSc. The written course materials will open. We're very pleased about this.

[Jenny Brennan @jennyhbren]

Where can I find the data scientists/engineers/tech folks thinking about data governance and data rights? 👩‍💻 Interested in blogs, Twitter follows, people or communities with a practical technical perspective as well as the ethical side of things.

RT for reach? 🙏

Is climate crisis about macro-decisions not micro (individual) ones?

[coedethics @coedethics]

I also added the https://t.co/Qxlzh6D1CB name as everyone misspells coedethics ;-) Might as well go with it

[coedethics @coedethics]

Yesterday we moved our coedethics site from @squarespace to blogger to comply with the Sustainable Servers by 2024 goals https://t.co/tuuRrF10jQ. It looks less flashy but being blog-based is probably better for a community site anyway

[coedethics @coedethics]

I considered a flat site hosted on S3/cloudfront in a sustainable AWS region but that was more work and we already had a blog on blogger.

[Cristiano Silva @cosmicboy79]

@coedethics is a group of professionals actively thinking about how "to maximize the good and minimize the harm caused by our software to individuals, society and the environment". It's really good to see such initiatives on this important topic. #Ethics #Technology

[Oshrat Nir 🎗️ @oshratn]

Don't forget to take the survey at the end. We'd really appreciate that.

Good post from @teemow & @rossf7 @giantswarm on what their own steps were to limit the climate change impact of their business and customers' hosting https://t.co/Fl5DUpkoVo

[Emily Cunningham @emahlee]

Some reflections on #AMZNclimate. Almost 7,000 Amazon employees have now signed a public letter asking the company to show bold, decisive leadership on the climate crisis 1/x https://t.co/bEmqgGjd5q

[Emily Cunningham @emahlee]

Today is Amazon’s annual shareholder meeting. Nearly 7,700 Amazon employees signed their name publicly asking Bezos and the board to adopt our climate change resolution. Employees want to LEAD on the climate crisis.

A thread on our historic, collective action 👇

[tech350.org @Tech350org]

If you are a customer of a cloud provider or even a customer of a product that lives in the cloud (thats most of us) speak up, ask for action on the #ClimateEmergency #tech350 Time for tech to change everything

[Amazon Employees For Climate Justice @AMZNforClimate]

Tomorrow, @Amazon shareholders will vote on our resolution. Almost 7,700 employees have publicly asked Amazon to adopt our resolution and LEAD on the climate emergency.

The two largest firms who advise investors on how to vote on shareholder resolutions have sided with us.

[Paul Johnston 🌍 non-exec/advisory @PaulDJohnston]

What would "taking the IPCC SR15 report seriously" look like?

* Removing fossil fuel subsidies
* Investing *heavily* in renewables
* Diesel scrappage schemes
* Car free city centres
* Serious increase in public transit infrastructure
* Frequent flyer tax
* ...

Tech Conferences have Codes of Conduct thanks to the brave and good work of certain people.

So: can they have a Climate Code of Conduct?

please comment: https://t.co/dXur8S5RDK

[🌿 @chekofif]

Really looking forward to the #beyondtech conference that, thanks to @coedethics, I'll get to attend today.

Ethics in the industry as a whole, in the tech we build and how we approach each other; D&I, neurodiversity and psychological safety.

The things that truly matter.

[coedethics @coedethics]

New #sciencefiction novel by @anne_e_currie https://t.co/9HWyC414tW is v much based on Qs raised by @coedethics about ethics, privacy, trust, Kant vs Utilitarianism, Hobbes, Chatbots & AI, drones, climate change & all else....
