  • Communities need to be Retro or Retro-adjacent.
  • Please don't upload pornographic content. (use an external image host for that)

The online activities of just one German town, Chemnitz, burn 450 kg of C02 per hour. Most of this is from Data-Centres supporting cloud infrastructures.

"Smoke builds a staircase for you to ascend ..." (Laurie Anderson, Home of the Brave)

Instead of climbing a staircase of thin air, use Simon Weckert's project as inspiration to find local, lower emission alternatives to using data-centres for digital activity.
