EMBRACING SUSTAINABILITY

Environmental awareness and striving for sustainability are causes close to Nadine’s heart. She wrote her thesis on carbon footprints and she loves to find ways to become more sustainable. For instance, in her research, she realised how much CO2 is generated by streaming services.

“I try to stream consciously, so I pause the movie whenever I leave the room,” says Nadine. “Not because of the electricity used by the TV, but because the data centre in the background creates so much CO2. Small steps like that have added a lot of value to my life because sustainability is important to me. Everyone knows when you're driving around with a car, it's creating CO2, but no one thinks about that when streaming Netflix or even if you just watch a video on your smartphone – it’s all generating CO2.”

Events

Nadine is excited to attend the next Digital X event in Cologne which will take place September 20-21, 2023. She loves how unique the experience is at the exposition, where cafes, bars restaurants and even laundromats become exhibition stands.

“It’s a super cool concept and I’m really looking forward to attending,” says Nadine.
