Instead of a formal proceedings, we intend to have an open review process, to encourage discussion and revision of position papers prior to (and during!) the workshop (details to follow soon!). An initial discussion forum for this is the google group "SE for the planet". Feel free to sign up and join the discussion.

We had three videos submitted:

• Robina Hetherington, Stephen Peake and Robin Laney, “A Requirement Engineering Approach to Design Software for Low Carbon Buildings“;
• Vahid Garousi, Ehsan Abbasi and Roshanak Ferhoodi, Richard Bauer, Allan Shea, “Engineering Software Systems for Improving the Operational Efficiency of Oil Pipeline Networks and Decreasing their Carbon Footprint“;
• Steve Easterbrook, “Software Engineering for the Planet” (taken from last year’s ICSE brainstorming session)
