Come along to our first GSF Scotland Hybrid event, brought to you live from one of the Green Software Foundations Scottish Partners: the University of Edinburgh! Live in person 12-2 and online 12.30 - 13.30. And wow have they been doing some brilliant things at the university, some of which we are pleased to be able to present to you at this meetup. We will have 2 presentations, plus food and drinks for those who attend in person at the Edinburgh Futures Institute, plus live streaming for those of you who attend online. Here is information on our first presentation, answering a question we in green IT ask ourselves regularly: **Images and videos – when do they add value, rather than just page weight?** by Katie Spearman, Content Design Assistant, and Dono Abdurahmanova, Green Digital Design Intern, both from the University of Edinburgh. Every image or video on a university webpage carries a carbon cost often unnoticed by content editors. At the University of Edinburgh, we’re shifting the narrative about the perceived necessity for online media by asking editors to consider one question before they hit ‘publish’ – does it add real value? We’ll share how we’ve: * Worked with editors to quantify the impact of their media content and its effectiveness in supporting end-users needs. * Reshaped image guidance to help editors make greener design decisions and increase digital sustainability awareness. Join us to learn how your institution can think practically about improving digital sustainability one webpage at a time. Our second session will look at the wider web estate, giving us an opportunity to learn how the university has been greening its estate, delivered by Stratos Filalithis, Head of Web Strategy, Information Services Group at The University of Edinburgh. **How we have approached digital sustainability in our web estate and what's next** How do large institutions work practically with creating more climate-friendly websites? In this session, the University of Edinburgh share their experiences, lessons learned, challenges faced, and what's next in their agenda for a "greener" web estate. Come along and find out how the university has greened its web - and how you can do it too.

We'll meet in Busaras in time to get the 11.15 bus to Trim (111 route), There are hourly return buses to Dublin. The donkeys are now out on their summer field. If you're bringing food for them please bring healthy food such as vegetables or fruits, but no bread or sweets. After lunch in the Castle Arch Hotel we'll go for a stroll along the River Boyne, taking in a couple of the historical sites.

Let’s meet and wander the galleries! General admission on Sundays is free.

Main Library, Meeting Room 2B What does it mean to be the salt of the earth and the light of the world? In this gathering, we'll continue our series on the Sermon on the Mount from a mystical perspective. Together we’ll explore Matthew 5:13–16, looking not only to the passage as moral instruction, but also to the deeper transformation of consciousness that Jesus invites. Together we'll reflect on how spiritual awakening changes the way we see ourselves, others, and the world around us. Libera Animae is an interfaith community focused on inner growth, creativity, and authentic connection. All backgrounds are welcome.

Let's stroll the artists' booths and enjoy some of the festival's opening day! The Columbus Art Festival features a wide and vibrant range of visual art from local and national exhibitors, plus, live music, and all kinds of food and refreshments, along the waterfront downtown. (The featured painting is by Columbus Art Festival exhibitor, Joe Engel - joe-engelart.com)

Bring your Raspberry Pi, Arduino, microcontroller, or any other electronic project and join fellow electronics makers for a night of creativity and collaboration! This session is open forum to share your current projects—whether complete or in progress, it’s all interesting! Whether you’re deep into embedded systems, exploring new ideas, or just getting started, you’ll find a welcoming space to collaborate, share, and get inspired. **New to electronics or curious about tinkering?** You’re absolutely welcome. If you’re a beginner and want to experiment, I’ll have a couple of starter kits available so you can try things out—whether that’s blinking your first LED, putting something on a display, or experimenting with simple sensors. No pressure and no experience required—just an interest in learning and building. While we continue to pursue a more permanent venue for this Meetup, we’ll be using public library facilities based on availability. This session will be at the Worthington Park Library in the Olentangy Meeting Room.
