The Sustainable Web Manifesto.
We all share and use the web, just as we all share and live on this planet. This manifesto is a public declaration of a shared commitment to create a sustainable internet.
If the Internet was a country, it would be the 7th largest polluter in the world and is expected to grow considerably by 2030.
If we embrace sustainability in our work, we can create a web that is good for people and planet.
