Abstract
A computer-implemented method (CIM), according to one embodiment, includes, in response to receiving a first packet from a first application, performing a predetermined process for determining a low carbon emission transmission route along a source to a target. The predetermined process includes predicting for each of a plurality of devices between the source and the target, carbon emissions that would result from using the device for transmitting the first packet, and generating a carbon emission map. The predetermined process further includes selecting, from the carbon emission map, a first transmission route that hops along at least one of the devices, where the first transmission route is selected over a second transmission route based on the second transmission route having a greater carbon emission than the first transmission route. The CIM further includes causing the first packet to be transmitted from the source to the target along the first transmission route.
