Responsible tech: your phone has a footprint too
Digital feels weightless, but it uses resources: here's how to ease off.
We often forget that our screens, videos and data have an environmental cost. Digital feels weightless, but it relies on very real devices and energy.
Make it last and lighten up
Keeping your phone longer instead of swapping it yearly is the most effective move. Then, clearing out useless files and lowering video quality when you don't need it lightens your footprint.
A repaired or refurbished device often beats a brand-new one. The rule stays the same as everywhere else: make it last before replacing it.
