Poster: THE CO2 EMISSIONS OF STORAGE AND USE OF DIGITAL OBJECTS AND DATA

Abstract

The storage and use of digital heritage objects produce carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions. Cultural heritage organizations can take several measures into consideration in order to diminish these CO2 emissions. However, how much CO2 do storage and use produce and what measures could have (the most) effect? We examined the CO2 impact and possible measures on the basis of a case study. We have focused our investigation on the impact of servers, infrastructure, cloud storage and use.
