My take on computers and the environment

I think the most important thing for people to keep in mind about computers and the environment is the amount of harm computers can cause environmentally when thrown out. To me that really the main issue with computers. Computers should be used with care as long as possible and shouldn't be thrown away to purchase a new computers than came out a year after your current one. If people would base their purchases on their needs rather than their wants, then their would be less computer waste which would make the Earth more cleaner. Here are two great websites regarding computer stewardship which may interest you:
