🔰 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👆

◯ What we do
While mingling with other members, we do:

  1. Learn why storeing crappy data matters
  2. List and visualise where our unnecery data is
  3. Declutter unnecessary digital data includes: Junk Emails, videos, photos, unused accounts, old drafts, etc.
  4. Roughly calculate how much CO2 emissions we cut together

*The cafe takes 90-min system at lunchtime.
