Digital Sustainability: From Principles to Practice is a field guide for anyone who designs, builds, or manages information technology.

Split into three parts, the book first grounds you in the essentials in sustainable computing: defining sustainability, introducing systems‑ and critical‑thinking tools, and mapping today’s environmental and social impact of IT.

Next, the book turns theory into action with hands‑on chapters on green‑minded design, carbon‑smart coding, low‑impact infrastructure, and humane user experience.

Finally, the book zooms out to examine ideas such as digital degrowth and hands the baton to you, the practitioner, with checklists and best‑practice templates in the appendix.

Read it to understand the stakes, master the methods, and bring genuinely sustainable decisions into every digital project you touch.

This book is work in progress, comments anac@zeland.dk are appreciated.

The last 3 chapters will be released over the next few months, as we are writing them.
