Virtual meetings can have participants join from all over the world and from very different computing devices which can each be powered by different power source types. When selecting a time for a virtual meeting between a number of participants, a large number of combinations may occur with each option having a different level of sustainability associated with it. However, by accessing historical data, sustainability data, participant data and by gathering various virtual meeting settings, a plurality of options can be presented having one or more indications associated with a particular category of sustainability. A sustainability threshold may be determined and utilized to categorize virtual meeting options as well. This sustainability threshold can also be utilized to dynamically alter configurations during the meeting to stay under that threshold.
