We have just updated our website and have paid attention to keeping our carbon footprint low, here are some ways you can do the same.

1
Automate your manual tasks with AI-powered Software as a Service
You don’t need in-house AI tools to do this, most software providers will be doing the heavy lifting for you
2
Step up your SEO and AI Optimisation (AIO) strategy
Make sure your experiences are easily discoverable in consumer-generated itineraries. If you’ve invested in search engine optimisation (SEO) in the past, a lot of that work will be paying off now, but if not, it’s never too late to tag your images, set meta descriptions and make sure your most important content is machine readable.
3
Experiment cautiously with customer facing AI tools
If you’re not yet using any AI in your business, now is not the time to rip out your search function on your website and replace it with an AI chat bot! As an end consumer you probably know how frustrating it can be to deal with a poorly trained bot. Instead, find a problem you have which is worth solving but not business critical to start learning in a low-risk environment.

Here are a some of the ways we have managed to build our new website that is cleaner than most!
We use Website Carbon to measure how we are doing, they also provide a widget you can add to all of your pages, see our footer.
Although it looks like our website uses 'bog standard energy' we use Webflow which I highly recommend. In turn, they use Fastly & AWS for their hosting.
AWS has committed to 100% renewable energy by 2025 and already the electricity consumed in most of the US data centres where our site is (probably) hosted is attributable to 100% renewable energy.
I am still looking for documentation on Fastly.com energy use....
I use Squoosh to compress images, for example I compressed the image above by 50%:
I hope these are helpful :)
