During my research career, I have always been trying to investigate on reducing the impact on the environment of human activity in telecommunications within the framework of several EU projects. Recently, I moved towards a more multidisciplinary paradigm, including different fields which will be predominantly from the energy consumption perspective in the next future, such as computing and AI. In fact, it is estimated that data-centre and AI processing will boost the energy consumption of the ICT ecosystem due to the data-tsunami we are generating with many new addictive data-hungry services. Moreover, I am collaborating in my neighbourhood with the Energetix group for fostering consciousness around the CO2 footprint of electric energy usage, for mitigating energy poverty and for implementing more environmentally-friendly practices.
