Ending 90 years of the celebrated Jaguar brand as it navigates anew future. According to Jaguar’s chief creative officer Gerry McGovern“the new electric model is the result of brave, unconstrained creativethinking and unwavering determination – the foundation stone for a newfamily of Jaguars that will look unlike anything you’ve seen before.” Formany aficionados it’s a sad day, 90-years of history and heritage lost, eventhe Jaguar leaper badging will disappear with the company only expectingto retain around 10-15 percent of its existing customers.

We can try our best, but its not always easy knowing what's best for the environment. The world is complicated, and it isn't as simple as reduce, reuse, recycle—though that's a great place to start!In the immortal words of Kermit the Frog, "It's not easy bein' green."We have two stories exploring that theme. The first is one we made in-house asking just how green our digital world really is, and the second comes from the Simply Science podcast exploring the world of urban forests.

Hardly a day goes by now without a news article circulating telling us of the boundless benefits of the next phase of AI and how we must all hurry to adapt. There's little time to think about the pros and cons – the mainstream narrative is get on board or get left behind. But what's at stake? What are the downsides? Activist Gerry McGovern is hugely concerned. And rightly so. The environmental footprint of next generation technology is barely mentioned. Author of World Wide Waste, Gerry has committed to sharing the true cost of AI as far and wide as he can. In this episode, Cat, Jen and Dom chat with Gerry to learn about the carbon impact of all-digital and uncover what internal communicators can do to educate, inform and help their organisations reduce their carbon emissions.   Takeaways Recognize the absence of bicycles in advertising and the prevalence of artificial bicycles for indoor use. Shift from propaganda to realism in order to make meaningful changes. Ask harder questions and work towards changing behaviors and mindsets. Slow down and recognize that humans were not designed for the fast-paced lifestyle we currently lead.   About Gerry McGovern Gerry has published eight books on digital content and data. In 1996, the Irish government published his report, ‘Ireland, The Digital Age, The Internet.' That same year, The European Union awarded Nua, a company he co-founded, its Best Overall WWW Business Achievement Award. Gerry's latest book, World Wide Waste, examines the impact data waste and e-waste are having on the environment and what to do about it. Gerry also developed Top Tasks, a research method used by hundreds of organizations to help identify what truly matters. The Irish Times has described Gerry as one of five visionaries who have had a major impact on the development of the Web.  www.gerrymcgovern.com gerry@gerrymcgovern.com @gerrymcgovern@mastodon.green    

Are you overlooking a major yet often overlooked contributor to climate change through your digital content creation and strategies? Are you unintentionally contributing to the planet's digital carbon footprint? As CME/CE content creators and strategists, we likely don't consider the climate impacts of our websites, documents, videos, and other digital materials. However, all that data requires substantial energy to power the creation, storage, and transfer of bytes, which generates carbon emissions that contribute to climate change. In this eye-opening episode, Alisa Bonsignore, a content strategy and sustainable content expert, reveals the surprising truth about the environmental impact of our digital world. Whether it's the websites we browse, the videos we stream, or the documents we store, our online habits are not as harmless as they seem.  For CME medical writers and content creators, understanding this connection is vital in making informed decisions that align with environmental sustainability. In today's episode, you'll: Gain insights into how digital content, including websites and emails, contributes to carbon emissions. Learn practical strategies like streamlining and removing unnecessary pages to create more sustainable and climate-friendly content. Understand how to balance visual impact with environmental responsibility when creating graphics, video and other visual media, and in doing so, you'll enhance the effectiveness of your digital presence. Appreciate the rationale for encouraging practices like video-off meetings and transitioning from video to audio or text formats.

‘Save the paper!' is something we hear so often, but every email, every website loaded and attachment sent, has a carbon footprint. This waste is often tucked away in data centres and thus out of sight, out of mind. Gerry McGovern has been working with the internet since the 90s and is here to remind us that digital is very much physical. From waste produced by our electronic goods to what needs to change systemically to reduce our data use, Gerry is an absolute wealth of knowledge.

This, and many other great initiatives, comes from Wholegrain Digital, a company founded by Vineeta and Tom Greenwood in 2007. Tom has recently published an excellent book, Sustainable Web Design, from A Book Apart. I wanted to know how Vineeta and Tom got started so early in promoting a culture of sustainable web design.

When COVID-19 hit, many governments reverted to a panic publishing approach, getting as much content up on their websites as quickly as possible. Structure, organization, testing, it all got shoved aside in the rush to publish. Sarah explains how this sort of panic publishing culture can be avoided in the future because panicking serves nobody. Sarah Richards defined the term ‘content design' in the early days of GOV.UK, where she led the award-winning content team in the design of the UK government website. For me, GOV.UK is one of the shining lights when it comes to true and genuine quality web design and management. GOV.UK has shown what online government for the people, rather than for the politicians, can be like, by being functional, evidence-based, rigorously tested, clear and succinct. Sarah now runs Content Design London, a content design consultancy. Sarah is a wonderful person and a true digital pioneer.

When Liam Nugent closed down his digital agency he accounted for all the digital stuff they had created. Each employee was generating about 100 gigabytes of data a year.

By 2035, it is estimated that there will be more than 2,000 zettabytes of data produced globally. Based on current storage pricing, 2,000 zettabytes would cost $58 trillion to store. The global economy is currently worth about $80 trillion. The pace and quantity of data production is not even remotely sustainable.One zettabyte—just one zettabyte—would require 20 trillion trees worth of paper to print out. There are about three trillion trees left on this planet. The digital world is undergoing a Big Bang of data and 90% of it is useless because we have a culture that prizes production and collection over-analysis and insight. Nick talks about how we might address the Big Data tsunami.  Buy the book by Gerry McGovern - https://gerrymcgovern.com/books/world-wide-waste/ Connect with Nick - https://www.linkedin.com/in/nick-e-0a0734124/ Upcoming courses with Gerry McGovern - https://www.thisisdoing.com/team/gerry-mcgovern More from This is HCD https://linktr.ee/thisishcd Join our Slack community / https://www.thisishcd.com/community/join/ Training with This is Doing

The growth in webpage size over the years has been astounding. It is driven by a culture of delivery, a project mindset, and a feeling that the Web is this unlimited space where you can essentially do anything you want without consequences. But good web design is a complex task that many organizations are either unwilling or unable to manage professionally. Once the initial buzz of signing off the visual design is done people want to move on. Fixing stuff is seen as a cost that the organization doesn't have time or money for. Reframing things around quality can change the focus. Jono explores how we can think of web design through a quality lens. https://www.jonoalderson.com/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/jonoalderson/?originalSubdomain=uk Buy the book by Gerry McGovern - https://gerrymcgovern.com/books/world-wide-waste/

Customer experience expert Gerry McGovern speaks with Kristina about how organizations need to shift focus away from production-based, internally-focused thinking and toward putting their customers' needs and top tasks first.

Gerry McGovern helps customers complete their most important tasks when they arrive at a website. His proven process routinely results in the removal of as much as 90% of the content on a website. This requires content managers to shift their mindset from a simple production model to an ongoing customer-centric "eternal beta."
