Make Your Digital, Tech, IT and AI More Sustainable - Consultancy Support

Managing the environmental and ethical impacts of tech, digital, IT and AI is a mounting challenge...

As well as providing huge sustainability improvement potential, the digital age has many negative environmental, ethical and societal aspects, so EcoCognito works with clients to minimise the negative impacts of their tech, digital, IT and AI operations; you can access this support as a standalone service, or combined with broader sustainability support.

Recent assignments we’ve worked on:

• Reducing environmental impact of clients’ IT operations: covering multifarious aspects including procurement, e-waste management and minimisation, maintenance cycles, and energy management.

“Many clients have been impacted negatively by the illegal disposal of their e-waste over recent years, so we’ve deployed a monitoring solution to ensure clients’ e- waste is disposed of correctly via remote monitoring – this combats criminality and error in the world of waste management” – Luke Rowlands, Director, EcoCognito

• Minimising footprint of data centres and telecommunication networks: external digital infrastructure supports our shift to digital, and ever-greater reliance on tech – so how can your organisation minimise its contribution to such impacts? We’ll show you exactly how.

• Addressing tech, digital, IT and AI related ethical concerns: including privacy issues, supply chain challenges, and the emerging problems associated with AI.

• Identifying and managing environmental impacts of digital marketing: which poses unique challenges in terms of energy and water use, via external digital infrastructure, so we can help clients minimise such impacts.

“Doing no harm, both intentional and unintentional, is the fundamental principle of ethical AI systems.” – Sri Amit Ray, Ethical AI Systems: Frameworks, Principles, and Advanced Practices

• Maximising AI sustainability: grappling with ethical challenges and environmental impacts: – we have worked extensively in the field of AI over the last two years, supporting clients with ethical framework development through to energy demand minimisation; AI offers potential sustainability benefits on many levels, while posing major challenges.
