Technology and sustainability have long been seen as two things that cannot go together. After all, producing the very technology we need is not environmentally friendly. From smartphones and laptops to USB devices and LAN cables, the manufacturing process of ICT hardware consumes a significant amount of resources. The internet’s energy expenditure rivals that of many well-developed economies and our digital habits just make it worse.
