# Carbon Aware SDK
2
-
Carbon aware software does more when it can leverage greener energy sources, and less when the energy CO2 emissions are higher.
2
+
The Carbon Aware SDK is a toolset to help you measure the carbon emissions of your software,
3

in turn helping you **measure and reduce your software's carbon emissions**.

The Carbon Aware SDK is a toolset to help you measure the carbon emissions of your software, in turn helping you **measure and reduce your software's carbon emissions**, and choose when and where you run your software to make it greener.

By knowing the carbon emissions of the energy that powers your applications,
6
+
you and your organisation can make decisions on when and where to run your software,
* Build your AI models when carbon emissions are lower
10
+
* Deploy software into the cloud in locations that have greener energy sources
11
+
* Run software updates at greener energy time windows
12
+
* Use data to run hypothetical models to understand how you could start driving impact and reduce emissions

Withing the [Green Software Foundations Theory of Change](https://greensoftware.foundation/articles/theory-of-change), we look at 3 pillars, that being **Knowledge**, **Tech Culture**, and **Tooling** as focus areas to drive this change. The Carbon Aware SDK at it's core sits firmly in the **Tooling** pillar, and also supports the other pillars, providing **Knowledge** through emissions data to inform change, and being core enabler for the **Tech Culture** for building carbon aware software.
