=Program Goals and Status for FY18/19=

TEC7: Environmental Sustainability
 * Goal Owner: Joel Aufrecht
 * Program Goals for FY18/19:What is the environmental cost of spreading free knowledge around the world, and what can we do at WMF to minimize that cost? These are the questions we are setting out to answer with this program. We will first produce and publish an environmental impact statement, and once we understand that impact, we will establish measures we can track and a sustainability roadmap with actions we can both take as an organization and recommend to our chapters, affiliates, and community with regard to minimizing our environmental impact as a movement.
 * Annual Plan: TEC7: Environmental Sustainability
 * Primary Goal is Knowledge as a Service: Evolve our systems and structures
 * Tech Goal: Supporting our Community of contributors
