Yes, I’d love to read more about that. i wonder if anyone here has a link to some research that looks at the full-er picture.
- gelert 5y agoThis is a good link to start exploring the issue: https://solar.lowtechmagazine.com/2009/06/embodied-energy-of-digital-technology.html https://solar.lowtechmagazine.com/2009/06/embodied-energy-of... Low tech magazine has a very definite agenda but I've found their writing really informative and I think they do a good job in raising how enormous an issue this really is.
