In shortMeasure first / Run where the energy is clean / Do less / Be honest about what remains.
1. Measure first
We track energy and emissions per coop and per customer. You cannot cut what you cannot count.
2. Run where the energy is clean
Brooder prefers regions with cleaner grids when latency allows. Customers can opt in with one setting.
3. Do less
The greenest compute is the compute you never run. We delete idle environments, compress aggressively, and turn lights off.
4. Be honest about what remains
We still have a footprint, and we publish it. If we say we are carbon negative, it should be because of math, not marketing.
