→Mozilla and Environmental Sustainability: typo fixed
As Mozillians, we believe that expanding access to a healthy internet ecosystem is critical. To date, we are still far from providing people globally with the quality of access they need and deserve, but, already, the internet’s impact in terms of greenhouse gas emissions is significant -- and we can expect emissions to continue to rise if the emissions to user ratio is not reduced. At the same time, climate change will have significant and lasting effects on infrastructure, connectivity, and human migration, which also affects how people communicate and which tools they use to connect with each other socially and professionally (the corona pandemic made that clear for many of us).
To us, this very obviously means: we can’t just go about our business as usual. We are in a climate crisis. And for Mozilla to thrive and grow on and with the internet, we need to contribute to improve its sustainability.
We therefore aim to establish (environmental) sustainability as a core trait of our culture and product development. As we embark on this journey, we will start by looking into three dimensions: impact assessments and mitigation, training and developing our staff, and awareness raising.
Expect this wiki to be updated regularly as we explore, learn, and grow along this journey. And if you have ideas or are interested in exploring more of this with our community, please join us on [https://chat.mozilla.org/#/room/#sustainability:mozilla.org Matrix].
