No more nonsense on internet
A search on Google, a story on Instagram, a post on Facebook, your video on Youtube, together, it all costs millions of tons CO2 to store and cool these messages in the mega datacenters around the world.
Only Google already processes more than 200 million searches daily. Our search habit is responsible for 1.4 kilograms of CO2 per day and thus more than half a billion kilos per year. The storage of photos and videos exceeds this number many times.
Of course, we cannot live without information of the internet. We cannot live without recording our life so now and then. But let just skip the nonsense, fake news and delete photos and videos you don’t want to keep forever.
