SA WG4 provides the following in response to the SA WG5 responses: Proposed changes to 3GPP templates for Work Item Descriptions and Specifications Original SA WG4 proposal: A proposal to modify the 3GPP Work Item Description and Specification templates to include a clause on Impact on Climate or How can impact on energy efficiency and\/or energy saving and\/or digital sobriety be considered in the work that would identify and collect relevant information. The end goal is to have the new clause be a consideration similar to the way Security is considered in any 3GPP effort or feature. To enable this, SA WG4 is considering to study developing guidelines on how this new clause would be populated. The hope is that such a clause may increase the awareness and considerations for any climate impact where this applies, while we hope it would not become a platform for green washing. SA WG5 reply: SA WG5 supports the proposal to modify the 3GPP Work Item Description and Specification templates to include a clause on Impact on Climate or How the impact on energy efficiency and\/or energy saving and\/or digital sobriety is considered in the work that would identify and collect relevant information. SA WG5 joins SA WG4 wishes that this would not become a platform for green washing. SA WG4 appreciates the support. Some member companies in SA WG4 are planning to propose to add the following clause to the 3GPP Work Item Description template via company contributions into SA#103:","secretary_remarks":"This was for information block noted.","agenda_item_sort_order":9,"ainumber":"2.1","ainame":"Incoming LSs - proposed to note","tdoc_agenda_sort_order":10160,"status":"noted","reservation_date":"2024-02-27 11:28:29","uploaded":"2024-03-07 06:45:04","revisionof":"","revisedto":"","release":"Rel-18","crspec":"","crspecversion":"","workitem":"","crnumber":"","crrevision":"","crcategory":"","tsg_crp":"","lsreplyto":"","lsto":"SA WG5","Cc":"TSG SA, SA WG1, SA WG2, SA WG3, SA WG6","lsoriginalls":"S4-240517","lsreply":"","link":"https:\/\/www.3gpp.org\/ftp\/TSG_SA\/TSG_SA\/TSGS_103_Maastricht_2024-03\/Docs\/SP-240021.zip","group":"SP","meeting":"SP-103","year":2024,"uicc_affected":"","me_affected":"","ran_affected":"","cn_affected":"","clauses_affected":"","crsinpack":null,"crsinpacknumber":0}]
