We’re talking about replacing a paper map with a screen right? A map that’s replaced how often? Yearly? I would personally be blown away if the screens over their lifetime were not orders of magnitude worse environmentally.
- Atheros 7y agoThe map is already updated several times daily (at least twice daily) as the system switches to late night service.
- CogitoCogito 7y agoCouldn't they solve that by putting up two maps next to each other? If I'm correct in my (baseless) assumption that the screens are orders of magnitude worse environmentally, then having two posters wouldn't really matter.
