• Abstract: Achieving carbon neutrality has become a critical goal in mitigating the environmental impacts of human activities, particularly in the face of global climate challenges. Input/Output (I/O) devices, such as keyboards, mice, displays, and printers, contribute significantly to greenhouse gas emissions through their manufacturing, operation, and disposal processes. In this paper, we explores sustainable strategies for achieving carbon neutrality in I/O devices, emphasizing the importance of environmentally conscious design and development. Through a comprehensive review of existing literature and best approaches, we introduces a framework to outline approaches for reducing the carbon footprint of I/O devices. The result underscore the necessity of integrating sustainability into the lifecycle of I/O devices to support global carbon neutrality goals and promote long-term environmental sustainability.

  Much of this debate has concentrated on direct impact without addressing the significant indirect effects. This paper examines how the problem of Jevons' Paradox applies to AI, whereby efficiency gains may paradoxically spur increased consumption. We argue that understanding these second-order impacts requires an interdisciplinary approach, combining lifecycle assessments with socio-economic analyses.

  We use machine learning to generate estimates of shade-tree cover and carbon stocks across a West African region. We find that existing shade-tree cover is low, and not spatially aligned with climate threat. But we also find enormous unrealized potential for the sector to counterbalance a large proportion of their high carbon footprint annually.

  A carbon market is a market-based tool that incentivizes economic agents to align individual profits with the global utility. We propose an adaptive mechanism design framework, simulating the market using hierarchical, model-free multi-agent reinforcement learning (MARL) Numerical results show MARL enables government agents to balance productivity, equality, and carbon emissions.
