Working Practices - videoconferencing #15

Open franciscrot opened 1 year ago

More info to help compare different videoconferencing software, maybe explore different numbers of participants as well. (Slightly surprising result from that one study, that for Zoom five participants used less energy than two).

To confirm, but is it likely that the differences between different videoconferencing softwares will be less significant than changing the settings within any given software? (Turning off cameras, turning down resolution, etc.)

Good point. Maybe for the time being we delete the empty 'Carbon footprint' column, we already say we don't know which is better and let us know if you do, maybe just follow that sentence with 'we have provided some details on accessibility and privacy as a first step'?

Thanks both. I agree with Lizzy. Good to keep the language open until we can quantify results.
