- CydeWeys 5y agoNo, way less resources are used in electronics recycling than in mining virgin resources. You're making a false equivalence here, or some weird kind of appeal to ignorance. Yes, it's true that some things are unknowable, but not this.
- BurningFrog 5y agoIf you have a source that quantifies this, I'd be happy to believe it.
