We partnered with Spectrum Cottfibres LLP and @WeAreLDC to train 300+ farmers in Bopapu village, Wardha and Hivara village, Yavatmal in Maharashtra. We focused on instructing them how to install pheromone traps and monitor PBW and ABW infestations using our Cotton Ace app.

Contacting Paper Authors for Emissions Estimation
By
–
Agreed, although the other suggestion of checking in with paper authors if you're trying to estimate emissions based on work they've published is also sensible.

Language Model Training CO2 Emissions Vastly Overestimated Study
By
–
If you actually measure the cost of training a language model of the scale examined by Strubell et al. in
an efficient Google data center, CO2e numbers are off by 100,000X (2.4 kg CO2e vs flawed estimate of 284,000 kg) -
Preventing CO2e Estimation Misinformation in AI Research
By
–
Agreed. As a minimal baseline, I would suggest "If you're trying to estimate CO2e emissions of a model, reach out to paper authors to say 'We've computed X: did that seem right?'". This would have prevented some significant misinformation in the field (data incorrect by >3000X!)

ML Environmental Impact: Prioritize Actual Data Over Misinformation
By

At the same time, the ML environmental impact community should use actual data whenever possible, and avoid wildly inaccurate estimates. There's a lot of misinformation and flawed data in the community that leads to wild headlines. Real data helps us focus on the right things!
