## Summary

A Computing Community Consortium (CCC) task force authored a new Communications of the ACM opinion piece, 'Balancing Sustainable Computing and Computing for Sustainability,' distinguishing between reducing computing's environmental footprint and using computing to solve sustainability challenges. The piece grew out of CCC-funded panels at SC24 and AAAS 2025, and involved authors from institutions including Caltech, UC Santa Barbara, and Google. A related CCC Community Chat webinar with the authors is scheduled for October 8, 2026.
