If you play the games in the Trillion Trees Game long enough, trees will be planted in the real world. It's a global tree planting initiative connected to the forest, game and gaming branch or industry and scene. #ecogame#gamedev#greengame#indiegames#reforest#treegame#TTG
Further pollution and heating of climate and environment by responsible industries and humans leads to more conflicts and crises! Telling these issues since years, offered solutions so many times. #globalcooling#globalgreening#peaceprocess#urbangreening https://t.co/JCwoICJkWf
Global warming waits for nothing, not even war Rising heat is killing crops, putting millions of people at risk of malnutrition, while millions of others are having difficulty finding water

@GlasnostGone In memories of all the death children, women and old people who died by the war in East Europe and European Russia. Mothers of Russia and Ukraine call your children for de-escalation, humane and peaceful actions. It is the only way to peace - reduce escalations. #PeaceDays#Peace
@deHaanJ Many games have environmental aspects and impacts on climate or environment for better or worse, they directly or passively address the topics. A footprint index for video games, hardware and gamer equipment in future would be great. #footprint#EcoGames#GreenIT#GreenGames
Some of the biggest world problems and challenges are to reduce the big waste of energy, money and resources, especially at mega events like COP26, E3 or Gamescom. The Green Games Community and upcoming green video game industry could change that! #eWaste#GreenGames#GreenIT
Plastics constitute 20% of e-waste. Recycling of e-waste plastics is held back because of presence of brominated flame retardants e.g. PBDEs. Those chemicals are toxic, persistent and bioaccumulative, some are listed under the #StockholmConvention for elimination. @brsmeas
In 2019, the world produced 53.6 million tonnes of #eWaste. But only 17% of those reached formal management or recycling systems.
Informal e-waste can pollute & contaminate:
❗️ air
❗️ soil & dust
❗️ water
❗️ ground water

Plastic pollutes and emits greenhouse gases. Fossil fuels that are made into plastic account for 14% of oil use. Continuing production means we are increasing global heat to exceed the set 1.5°c limit. #ClimateCrisis#EndPlasticPollution@EndPlasticsNow
@BusinessInsider If... 2021 e-waste is surging at 57.4 million tons with just 17.4% being recycled as per 2019 figures. 9% of all plastic waste ever produced has been recycled. #ewaste#plasticwaste#recycling#wastefacts https://t.co/JILpR6JUCT, https://t.co/I32aGR5zqe, https://t.co/jLaY2ZMcUl
Boris Johnson said today that reusing #plastics "doesn't begin to address the problem"
Q: What’s the UK’s plastic policy?
A: Dump it on other countries
Less than 10% of our plastic recycling is done in the UK. Film @GreenpeaceUK#plasticpollution#cop26
@WHO@WHOEMRO@WHO_Europe@WHOWPRO@WHOSEARO@WHOAFRO@pahowho@opsoms Your forgot some important points! Better is to reduce, reuse, recycle, repair and or to upcycle if possible! #RRRRU It's not just about e-waste, toxic and plastic waste or microplastics! Sustainable consumption, living, production and working is the key. https://t.co/a9piD2vUQo
#EWaste in Africa. 💻
Barriers to effective e-waste management in Africa include legislative gaps, infrastructure, transparency, & cost. 💭
In this report, William Avis (@iddbirmingham) explores these barriers as well as the opportunities: 👉 https://t.co/9wNnuB7ZGE

@motherboard Just to not forget the crimes and pollution in history - many just a few years or a year ago! All the environmental and Human Rights violations by polluters, garbage industry, plastic waste and e-waste issues - people won't forget. #ewaste#truehistory#plasticwaste#polluters
E-waste that is not recycled often ends up in the landfills. As a result, toxic substances commonly found in electronics such as lead, cadmium, & mercury have the capability of contaminating land, air, and water. Follow this link for more info https://t.co/GNZacSzIx6 #ewaste
Game developers, gamers and publishers should understand the impacts of console, computer and video games on environment, climate change and global warming! It's not just about energy waste, ewaste or carbon footprint. #ewaste#footprint#gaming#pollution https://t.co/5BBsOq4RkD
Bon ce matin, c'était PS4 aux cafards (merci @TeliADC ) pour cette trouvaille. Déjà mal démontée par un dépanneur (manques vis et pièces) elle est tellement dégueu. Nettoyée, remise en état grâce au kit @iFixitFR (❤️) et repartie 👌 #GreenIT#Reconditionnement#eWaste#Cafard
From e-waste to #Plastic#waste...every thrown thing is sent to poor countries. Which do get #reuse to some extent but what after that. Eventually end up as non-segregated #environment affecting waste.
We have to change are consumption habits or will see the wrath of nature.
