We all know that climate change is one of the biggest issues we need to tackle. Fortunately, tech industry has a lot to offer to solve some of these challenges.
In this episode of CodeStories, we will learn about green software engineering and climate-first approach. We’ll also discuss the recent "Hack the Climate" event; specifically the LandPRO team who built an app to help farmer estimate carbon emissions and mitigate climate change.
