Introduction:
The growing environmental impact of digital technologies on greenhouse gas emissions, among others, is becoming really worrying:

  • Digital technologies’ energy consumption is currently increasing by 9% per year.
  • In terms of Greenhouse Gas emissions, digital technologies will go from around 3,6% in 2018 (about the same level as air transport) to around 8% in 2025 (about the same level as car transport).
  • Only a third of the metals present in user devices (smartphones, computers etc.) can be recycled, and over 70% of them are part of illegal WEEE Trade.

The evolution of digital infrastructure, services and usages’ environmental footprint is going against Paris Agreements to fight climate changes.
