I have diagnosed ADHD, so I clean my school binders about once a year. It’s my last day of school for this year today, decided to throw it all out, and was met with this horrendous amalgamation of tree pulp. Because the thousands we pay to DataHoover Google yearly for “laptops” and ransomware cloud storage means absolutely nothing. Can’t fucking wait to graduate.
I recognize the complexities involved. But as long at data centers are fueled by a fossil based grid and use clean water for cooling, this amount of paper is not hurting more nor less. OP is fine, if they want to save trees the move is to stop corn and palm oil in products. That’s what is destroying forests.
