I doubt you would care very much (not many do), but this is a problem for those among us fortunate enough to be born in so-called "developing" countries.
I am from one where we still burn coal for heat (along with plastic bottles, tires, and rubber). You can imagine the impact of the electricity produced here. Yet there are IT jobs here and we're using many of the same products you do.
I've been using Drone and GitLab CI for years and likely won't be using anything like what you're describing because green energy is simply not available, and probably won't be for the next 50 years at the very least.
Hosting CI on the other side of the planet is a no-go for various reasons (we self-host everything since it makes a lot of sense for us).
I do care. I also was born in a developing country. (Though the correlation between development of country and proportion of green/renewable energy usage is I think quite low (and might not even be positive?) [0].)
I think access to software and services shouldn't be be based on the country you happen to live in, and I wouldn't want to contribute to that. But I would have thought either using a hosted service, or else self-hosting in a different country, are almost always options. Why is hosting CI on the other side of the planet for you a no-go?
(Also, I think right now a license that simply says "must be run with renewable energy" is infeasible almost everywhere still.)
Except that it isn’t then free software. Nix and its ecosystem is all free software, and it seems incongruous for people to build nonfree tools on top of and around it.
