Roadmap

This roadmap provides an overview of the direction this project is heading.

Underlying questions:

  • What aspects play the largest role in the environmental effects of the Internet?
  • How can these effects be determined quantitatively and qualitatively in a simple way?
  • What secondary tools need to be developed to make the determination of these effects widely accessible?
  • How can this then be described in an unambiguous and standardized way?
  • What steps are needed for officially accepted standardization?
  • How do we ensure that as many websites as possible adopt the standard?

Future actions following project:

  • A publicly accessible GitHub repository will be set up for the standard.
  • Applications will be made for funds to further develop the standard.
  • It is our intention to get the standard accepted as an official standard by IANA.
  • A website is being developed for the standard on the domain earthtxt.org.
  • Large technology companies and governments are being lobbied to adopt the standard.
