As the world grapples with the consequences of climate change, many scientists have begun to face up to the realities of their carbon emissions. In the prototype stage 69% of emissions are expected to be from digital technologies, compared with 27% from travel and 4% from “hardware equipment”, such as manufacturing the radio antennas.
