  • Green IO is THE podcast for anyone interested in ICT sustainability

    The title says it all – Gaël is an excellent host, it is well-researched, always inclusive of great/knowledgable guests, and the production quality is so good! It’s also impressive to see such a useful podcast from an individual creator (and not a major media company). Keep up the great work!
