A company operates a web API that runs continuously and processes thousands of requests per second. The service is currently written in Python. A team proposes rewriting it in Go. A separate team proposes keeping Python but moving 60% of the workload to a cloud region with lower carbon intensity. Which statement best characterises the trade-off between these two approaches?

Question

Accepted Answer

The Go rewrite reduces total energy consumed; the region move reduces the carbon per unit of energy consumed. Both are valid strategies addressing different factors in the emissions equation.

Answer

Both approaches produce the same emissions reduction because energy and carbon intensity are proportional

Answer

The Go rewrite is always superior because it reduces energy at the source

Answer

The region move is always superior because it addresses emissions directly
