Green Tech South West welcomes two local developers, Nick Lewis and Dryden Williams, to talk about the environmental impact of websites, and the tools they've created to support others in understanding and reducing the impact of their own sites.

What makes a sustainable website - lightning talk

--------------------------------------------------------------------

* A brief introduction into what makes a website sustainable

* Why consdering how green your website is matters

* The basics of what can be done to start making a website green

Nick is a Creative Technologist at Fiasco Design (UK) and the creator of the-sustainable.dev. He also runs an outdoor adventure blog with his partner, called Mountain and Co. When not writing code or blog posts, he's outside - getting his fix of fresh air and open landscapes.

* How this is not only good for the planet but good for business too

Dryden works as a web developer but most importantly loves to be in nature. If not surfing, he's running, planting trees or going for long walks. He's a passionate environmentalist looking to use tech for good to help our planet and people and he's on a mission to reduce the carbon emissions of the internet.
