This presentation is aimed at developers and owners of WordPress websites who are interested in measuring and reducing their website’s carbon footprint.
We will cover the following topics:
· How to objectively measure the carbon footprint of websites.
· How to identify the biggest culprits.
· How to optimise content such as video, audio, images, text and third-party scripts in practice and what level of reduction you can typically expect.
· Whether a climate-friendly website is a boring website?
· A single case study.
· Some selected online articles, groups and podcasts if you are eager to know more.
A little knowledge of your browser’s developer console is a good starting point, but not a requirement.
The presentation only refers to freely available tools and resources.
