Have you ever wondered why new tech often breaks in a span of a few years while that 20 year old microwave at home still works just fine? Why we celebrate our smartphone if it's still functional after 3 years like that is rare? I for one has always wondered about this and I found a really interesting video about the topic of Planned Obsolescence. Some key points from the video: Manufactured obsolescence fuels consumerism and environmental degradation in an already over consuming world. So if it is clearly a terrible scheme for our wallet, well being and the environment; how do we stop it? We have to shift our action compass from self-centric to nature-aligned. We have to filter every action through a consequential stress test, and we have to be pretty radical about it. When considering an action, we have to ask: Does it actively contribute to humans and nature thriving together as one integrated system on this planet? If yes, green light. If not, red light. Companies like Fairphone and Framework Computer (to name a few) seem to be working on this problem so this is not a distant dream, it is happening right now. https://youtube.com/watch?v=wzWU7D0S9_8 Photo by Ashkan Forouzani @ashkfor121 on Unsplash

Great idea! Styrofoam is a terrible waste problem. It should be illegal. I hope biodegradable mushroom packaging catches on quickly!

The Apple Podcast app doesn’t have a climate category, which means it’s incredibly difficult for listeners to find information on climate and environment. Apple Podcasts sets the standard for the entire podcast industry, which sits at US$2 billion P.A. When they added True Crime as a category in 2019, all podcast apps followed suit. As a result, there are now 40,000 True Crime shows... If we get Apple to change, we change everything. So help us raise the volume for climate-engaged podcasters — because the real true crime is climate silence. Sign our open letter to Apple here: www.podcastersdeclare.com

When can we be satisfied with the technology we have already developed? Is there really a need to make new products; especially when they are designed to be of one time use? This is not acceptable! https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=XfIibTBaoMM

It's a pretty clear question raised in the end: Nvidia, what happened to Reduce, Reuse, Recycle? Why prioritize Nvidia's short term profits over creating products in a circular economy? With your massive scale and reach, you're heavily responsible for the raising E-waste problem. How are you going to solve it on a systemic level?
