Did you know the Internet emits more CO₂ than global aviation?

I fight against digital waste: the pollution emitted due to our digital infrastructures, processes and practises.

On a micro level this is personal technology usage, like sending emails and video streaming. Every click, scroll and swipe on the Internet costs a little bit of energy. On a macro level, this is the energy consumption of the 24/7 running data centres that facilitate our technology.

Trust me, I’m the last person suggesting we should go back to using carrier pigeons. Because the good news is: there are lots of ways to decrease our digital waste – one of them being the way we design the web.
