Being "zero waste" means that we adopt steps towards reducing personal waste and minimizing our environmental impact.

Our community places a major focus on the 5 R's: refuse, reduce, reuse, recycle, and rot. We practice this by reducing consumption, choosing reusable goods, recycling, composting, and helping each other improve.

We also recognize excess CO₂, other GHG emissions, and general resource usage as waste.

I just don't get how people spend +$500 on a PS5 or an *Xbox to play games that barely work, and the friggin' thing constantly wasting 500 Watts of power. 🔥⚡

While i spent the same amount of money on a used laptop from 2019, where i can replay my favorite games from the PS2 era (and discovering some hidden gems along the way) using only 45W. 🔌💡🔋🍃

*At least the Series S does makes sense to me, since it's a lot cheaper and efficent, and it's mainly targeted for lightweight or previous gen titles.

apparently rendering 4k is not eco friendly..also it doesn't help that modern games aren't really that optimized..u can't really blame sony only, but i get where u coming from

Anything higher than 1080p is definetly NOT eco-friendly (thus far)
