🔰 Digital Cleanup – Learn how to cut CO2 with just one finger!


Details
Did you know you can reduce 40 kg of CO₂ emissions just by deleting 10,000 emails?💨 Actually, data centres and networks that store them cause about 1% of the world’s energy-related CO₂ emissions!⚡️🏭💨
Like me, I bet many of you keep countless junk Emails(I have 53,378 today), tons of blurry photos, and bad quality videos for years🫨 Needless to say, excessive data usage is causing extreme summers🔥
In this session, we’ll take time to understand what "Digital waste" is, and learn how to reduce our own carbon footprint by only one finger👆

While mingling with other members, we do:
