How are we getting there?” 02:15:05 Yann Coadou: you may not have a specific question but you can upvote others' on sli.do 02:19:55 Hannah Wakeling - STFC UKRI: The question was: “What are, if any, direct technological developments in HEP that would contribute towards an impactful greener technology?” 02:25:14 Vasiliki Mitsou: Question asked: “We can't all move computer centres to green areas. What else can we do?” 02:30:50 Hannah Wakeling - STFC UKRI: The question was: “In most facilities, the people working in sustainability have other responsibilities as well. How feasible would it be to have a team that only focuses on this?” 02:30:52 Vasiliki Mitsou: The question is: “In most facilities, the people working in sustainability have other responsibilities as well. How feasible would it be to have a team that only focuses on this?” 02:36:24 Vasiliki Mitsou: The question is: “How much focus is put on showcasing the efforts/innovations made towards sustainable HEP facilities to the local non-physics community, for raising awareness?” 02:41:09 Thomas Planche: We’ve arranged a society on science and technology in which nobody understands anything about science and technology, and this combustible mixture of ignorance and power sooner or later is going to blow up in our faces. I mean, who is running the science and technology in a democracy if the people don’t know anything about it? Carl Sagan 02:41:58 Vasiliki Mitsou: The question is : “Do your institutions provide training for staff on sustainability and allow worktime to develop ideas for this? Are there existing or planned initiatives?” 02:50:12 Vasiliki Mitsou: Question asked: “Big science emits far less than meat or fast-fashion etc, while furthering knowledge. Can physicist/scientists act globally to push stronger climate policy?” 02:50:49 Vasiliki Mitsou: Link for questions (reminder): https://app.sli.do/event/kqbGVm2M7u2ffNspDFLMbN 02:51:01 Irvy (Igle) Gledhill: On the question of how organisations can get together on sustainability in accelerators, there is ICFA: https://iupap.org/who-we-are/internal-organization/working-groups/wg1-international-committee-for-future-accelerators-icfa/ 02:51:22 Irvy (Igle) Gledhill: That would be an excellent place for the discussion of building in sustainability. 02:53:21 Hannah Wakeling - STFC UKRI: (For reference - IUPAP) 02:54:27 Denise Völker DESY: ICFA has a specific panel on sustainabilty: https://icfa.hep.net/icfa-panel-on-sustainable-accelerators-and-colliders/ 02:55:06 Irvy (Igle) Gledhill: https://iupap.org/who-we-are/internal-organization/working-groups/wg21-working-group-climatechange-action-sustainabledevelopment/ 02:55:25 Dave Newbold - STFC UKRI: Please also note: https://arxiv.org/html/2504.01235v1 02:55:53 Hannah Wakeling - STFC UKRI: ESSRI Conference 02:58:16 Vasiliki Mitsou: The question is: “Extending LHC Run 4 beyond 2041 is probably going to become inevitable and we should also consider the environmental implications of that” 02:58:41 Denise Völker DESY: last ESSRI conference: with links to all the old ones https://agenda.ciemat.es/event/4431/ 02:58:58 Denise Völker DESY: if you have question on ESSRI please contact me 02:59:20 Vasiliki Mitsou: Question: “How do we change the incentive system in science so that engagement in sustainability is rewarded given short timescale contracts, etc.?” 03:02:37 Vasiliki Mitsou: Question: “How can labs collaborate internationally to achieve environmental targets, like net-zero targets?”
