It’s time to fight against the huge amount of invisible waste: digital waste.
Digital activity also leaves a footprint: storing our photos or e-mails consumes lots of energy. If it doesn’t come from renewable sources, large data centres generate CO2 emissions that can create as much pollution as travelling by car thousands of kilometres.
