    Where is the conversation about the mountain of e-waste that’s heading to landfills if a concerted effort is not made to put Linux on millions of machines and to put those machines into the hands of people who can benefit from them?

      Generations worth of peoples E-waste *

      Let’s not forget we produce 3, 4, or more models of phones, tablets, laptops, and so much more each year, per manufacturer and there are a shit load if brands. That’s an alarming planet amount of E-waste and we don’t have the raw materials to keep up this pace forever, the energy supply. It’s totally outlandish.

      We need to not be carbon neutral we need to massively be carbon negative.
