How to measure ICT carbon footprint? A quick guide to GreenOps toolkit
summary
Practical checklist for measuring a digital service carbon footprint: GreenOps assembles EcoIndex (website macro scores), GreenSpector (device-usage scripts), Scaphandre (agent + Prometheus exporter for VM/process energy), plus cloud provider published footprints and a Boavizta-style inventory for infra + apps. Claim: digital services cluster emissions across manufacturing, datacenter, network and devices so top‑down 10%‑scale estimates must be matched by bottom‑up per‑app transfer and CPU/storage metrics; several open‑source tools already work in pilots.
