With climate change already here and its effects all around us, it’s urgent to continue efforts across all industries to reduce CO2 emissions. But what about the information technology sector? The World-Wide Web we depend on enriches our lives in many areas: education, commerce, government, news, communication, and more. However, the infrastructure that enables it uses a lot of electricity — not all of which is generated from renewable resources (hence its CO2 generation.) Combining the fields of computers and the environment, a relatively new Website construction method called “Sustainable Web Design” is gaining awareness. This software-based approach reduces non-renewable energy to lower CO2 emissions so the people of today and tomorrow can benefit from everything that the Web offers. How a Website is constructed and presents its information has real-world effects! A Website can be built to serve smaller files, use less resources, and require less processing power — all of these help reduce non-renewable energy use and associated CO2 emissions. Sustainable Web Design also has side-benefits: a faster Website, better mobile device battery life, higher-placed mobile Google search results, and better accessibility. This presentation will introduce how to determine a Website’s sustainability, identify elements which can slow down a Web page, describe basic sustainable Web design strategies and techniques, offer easy to take actions and examples, present the perspective and advice of a Website Designer/Webmaster who remade his organization’s Website to be sustainable, and list additional resources to follow the latest developments.

Welcome to the first session of the IEEE Princeton Central Jersey Section (PCJS) Data Analytics Group. As a Chair of this newly established group, I am excited to introduce a platform dedicated to fostering learning, collaboration, and growth in the rapidly evolving field of data analytics. This session is designed to welcome members, non-members, students, and aspiring data professionals, providing an overview of the fundamentals of data analytics and its growing significance across industries. We aim to offer valuable insights into how this group will serve as a community hub, bringing together industry experts to discuss current trends, key challenges, and emerging opportunities within the field of data analytics. Our mission is to empower learners at all levels by providing access to thought leaders, industry professionals, and real-world applications of data analytics. Attendees will gain a better understanding of the tools, techniques, and issues shaping the future of data analytics, as well as actionable strategies for advancing their skills and careers in this dynamic domain. This session marks the beginning of an ongoing conversation where we, as a community, will explore the limitless potential of data and how it can be harnessed to drive innovation and solve complex problems.
