Digital Cleanup Day [World]
2022-03-19 08:00 - 17:00 (Europe/Helsinki)
In the digital world, similar to the environment, there is a huge amount of trash.Unnecessary emails, files, apps, duplicates of photos and videos are all digital waste.

This digital trash creates digital pollution that continues to consume energy even when we have forgotten it. Each year the internet and its supporting systems produce 900 million tons of CO2! Some studies estimate that in a decade the internet network will consume 20 percent of the world’s total energy*.

If we delete all unnecessary files, apps, photos and videos, we are not just saving a huge amount of CO2 but we are also extending the life of our gadgets, feel more balanced, and we take control over our lives, forge new digital habits, and we will be more efficient and satisfied. Sounds like a win-win!

Join Aktief Slip on World Digital Cleanup Day and cut down on your carbon footprint!
