Waste not, want not.
- A realisation of the need for change in our digital lives.
We appear to live in an age of digital overconsumption and usage. We are so busy in the doing and the getting to done, that we seem not to always be paying attention to how much we really need or use, or the social and environmental consequences of our behaviours and actions.
Its feels there is a tension here.
In this personal journey of reflection, a notable state of being awakened, fear and desire to move to action. We will explore some relatable real-world examples from our digital consumption, with a view to shifting from meeting short-term individual needs to longer-term collective benefit. We’ll explore e-waste and how we can shift our behaviours immediately, and why this has never been more important.
July 10th @ 11:10 - 11:50am EST / 5:10 - 5:50pm CEST
