Data centres worldwide consume a lot of energy and water. Currently, they are estimated to use up to 2% of global electricity.⚡💧 This is why the Swiss #Datacentre Efficiency Association (@SDEA) introduced a label that measures the climate impact of data centres more accurately than existing indicators. It analyses energy #efficiency and considers the entire energy balance of a data centre. Implementing the requirements for obtaining the label may lead to savings of up to 70% on data centres' energy consumption!🔋 👇Find out more! https://loom.ly/kDMCe_Y #sustainability #energy

This year’s #WorldHumanitarianDay is celebrated just a week after the 75th anniversary of the Geneva Conventions. Despite 75 years of international law to protect civilians and aid workers, violations continue: 2023 was the deadliest year on record for humanitarian workers and 2024 may be even worse, ultimately also affecting the civilians they serve. #Switzerland salutes to the commitment of humanitarian workers around the world and calls for a better protection of humanitarian workers in the spirit of the #GenevaConventions.
