Change the way you think about your laptop

Do you know what goes into making your laptop?
Raw materials for electronic goods are mined from tropical rainforests, but as resources dry up, recycling aluminum is key.
If a laptop manufacturer only used recycled aluminum, it would take 90% less energy to make the same machine.
Imagine what our world would be like if more products recycled or reused existing materials.

Changing how we think leads to more questions. More questions leads to more answers. The vision for this initiative is only to change the way you think.

[@LHCworld]

Savez-vous ce qui se passe lors de la fabrication de votre ordinateur portable?
Les matières premières pour les produits électroniques sont extraits des forêts tropicales humides, mais comme les ressources se tarissent, le recyclage de l'aluminium est un élément clé.
Si un fabricant d'ordinateur utilisait uniquement de l'aluminium recyclé, il faudrait 90% d'énergie de - pour faire le même pc.
Imaginez ce que notre monde serait s'il existait plus de produits recyclés ou matériels ré-utilisés.

The idea of the video is that it makes you think TO LOOK for the solutions. e.g. greenpeace. org/international/en/campaigns/climate-change/cool-it/Campaign-analysis/Guide-to-Greener-Electronics/

[@vaklas2]

Also change the way you think about your laptop and the internet? What would you do if those two never existed? Think about the benefits too, not only the drawbacks...

[@mrdenn1sz]

the only thing that i was thinking when i watched this video

[@vaklas2]

could you make this video if you haven't a laptop or pc?

[@bosaap10]

Os paises que possuem uma consciencia ,ambiental , sabem que a a ganancia dos madeireiros brasileiros esta destruindo devastando , a Amazonia , o mundo deve se unir em , torno de uma internacionalização da Floresta Amazonica , para que possamos garantir a sobrevivencia da raça humana no futuro...........

[@kevinpm1990]

the awkward moment when u realise that this video also was made using a computer (could be a laptop or desktop - not much of a difference)

[@headcutter09]

yeah and its like you own a Windows 98...

[@DaKittamiau]

@bosaap10 You can't really do anything about this thing. Neither can anyone else.

[@ceekje300]

Its just only About aleminum

[@nicolasmolano08]

[@bosaap10]

@DaKittamiau unless you donate money to WWF

[@sugiiraanand9278]

3 people don't care about our world

[@Orsonik1414]

I wonder how many laptops were used to create this video... I mean yeah, it is important to think and act about nature but c'mon, what do u want us to do wwf? Live back in the cave? -.-

[@nicolasmolano08]

its just to spread awareness and if you saw the end it said "Think about a planet where using recycled materials is the norm" plus it doent seem like youre doing anything to help

[@heathernykoluk7686]

my laptop isnt made of aluminum

[@winsersery]

Who really cares other than trying to do something at least?

[@Nutzername36]
