In this post, we’ll talk about the https://acloudguru.com/blog/engineering/what-is-amazon-web-services-aws push for sustainability, how AWS feels sustainability responsibility should be split between AWS and builders, and what it might mean for cloud and development in 2022 and beyond. So it probably comes as no surprise that cloud providers are pushing for sustainability so we can keep this whole existing-and-occasionally-eating-pizza party going a bit longer.

At re:Invent 2021, AWS also introduced its Shared Responsibility Model, which essentially says that AWS will be responsible for the stability of the cloud, while customers are responsible for sustainability in the cloud.

To help with this, AWS is (eventually) rolling out the AWS Customer Carbon Footprint Tool, which the company says is “coming soon.”

The new AWS Sustainability Pillar puts a focus on helping organizations learn, measure, and improve their workloads to meet environmental best practices for cloud computing.
