But there's hope: small, thoughtful changes in design and development can reduce the damage, while also making the web more resilient in the face of a changing climate. In Sustainable Web Design, Tom Greenwood offers a practical path to faster, more carbon-efficient websites that are not only better for the planet, but better for our users.


THIS BOOK EXPLORES:

  • How to measure-and reduce-a website's environmental impact
  • Designing low-carbon design choices around imagery, content, color, and more
  • Development processes that optimize for energy efficiency
  • Hosting and data transfer costs and considerations
  • What you need to sell sustainable practices in your team or organization
