I'd suggest to add a short intro of computing-related impacts.

Good idea -- if you could suggest some text that would be great (otherwise I will try to have a go next week)

What about something like:

As we engage in research activities, our utilization of computers and code execution significantly affects the environment. In this section, we explore approaches that can be employed to mitigate the environmental impact arising from the computational aspects of our research endeavors.

I've added this suggestion -- does that look ok?

(just a heads up that those all-contributors PRs might clash with eachother - I usually do one at a time, unfortunately)

I've approved and merged the first all-contributors PR, and can confirm that the subsequent ones now clash.

Please can you follow the instructions at https://github.com/the-turing-way/the-turing-way/blob/main/CONTRIBUTING.md#recognising-contributions to remove the additional ones and then do one at a time? (I would do this but I'm short on time today)

(The allcontrib docs do say that you should be able to add multiple at once, but that doesn't seem to work for us for some reason...)

Hi @ereynaud , thanks for raising the point. I went for the people who were mentioned in the summary at the top of the issue. Looking back through the issue, I think your contributions are valuable, and may be the basis for a broader chapter in the future, although I don't think any of it was incorporated in this PR. Do you think it would be fair to acknowledge your contribution as providing ideas?

@acocac, @aleesteele what do you think?
