Hello everyone,
@Nancy-Chauhan and I are starting to work here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/19aHbVfRLlIXpk9FP3cNH55L80bVmhQHX8QQdZYfascY/edit
@savitharaghunathan, can you add it to the description of this issue to increase visibility?

I believe a good structure is the one proposed by @savitharaghunathan in the description of this issue.
I would create a paragraph for each of these sections.

Any contribution is welcome. If you want to write a specific paragraph, please write it here and mark it on the Google Docs!

[Nancy-Chauhan]

Hey @savitharaghunathan We can look forward to publish the blog this week along with the video 😄

[claire-fletcher]

Is everything set up for publishing the video? If not I can lend a hand!

[savitharaghunathan]

@Nancy-Chauhan that's awesome. I am happy to coordinate with the CNCF blog team. Is the draft linked in https://docs.google.com/document/d/19aHbVfRLlIXpk9FP3cNH55L80bVmhQHX8QQdZYfascY/edit final?

[Nancy-Chauhan]

Hey @savitharaghunathan Yes it is ready from our end. Should we make PR to https://tag-env-sustainability.cncf.io/blog/ as next step ?

Yes please. cc: @claire-fletcher @guidemetothemoon please comment if there is a different process that needs to be followed.

[guidemetothemoon]

No, the process is pretty straightforward - once all comments are resolved and authors feel that the blog post is ready to be added, then it's just to go ahead and create a PR😊

[Nancy-Chauhan]

Hey Yes @claire-fletcher everything is set for video as well, we can make it public as soon as we release the blog

[akelity]

I'm preparing the PR to add the article. I will update you here as soon as it is submitted.

[akelity]

The PR is here: #424
Here is a preview of the final result (if you want to check the blog post): https://deploy-preview-424--tag-env-sustainability.netlify.app/blog/2024-cncf-cloud-native-sustainability-week-2024-is-underway-and-why-you-should-care/

it should be okay (but double-check to be sure), we were thinking of publishing on Thursday (the dates I have put are all May 30th).
