Hi everyone, 

I'm happy to share an article that Mirjam and I just published on RIPE Labs about sustainable procurement practices: 

https://labs.ripe.net/Members/michael_oghia/you-ve-got-the-power-sustainable-procurement-and-the-ripe-community

I wanted to post it here because I think it's relevant to this group as operators, managers, and others. I'm keen to hear your thoughts, and encourage you to leave comments on the article so we know how to best take this forward (and also gauge interest). 

Have a good weekend,,
-Michael
