As Cloud industry gears up towards attacking Climate Change – identifying the sources of carbon and other associated impacts is a needed first step to device a plan of action to further sustainability improvements. The cloud storage market is expected to exceed $390B by 2028; hence a key area of focus to reduce Data Center Climate Impact. As a leading force in the cloud solution sector, we recognize the environmental implications.

As the demand for cloud storage continues to grow, current centralized infrastructures are causing a detrimental impact on the environment. The cloud's carbon footprint has already surpassed that of the airline industry, but the recent surge in demand for AI is exacerbating the problem. Innovative storage solutions that reduce emissions without sacrificing performance and availability are needed now more than ever. In this session, we will delve into the technical aspects of how Storj is addressing this critical issue through an advanced distributed storage model.
