Save resources - starting with computers
A throw away society is not sustainable. We request pressure to require hardware and software companies to maintain backward compatibility, upgradability and promote repairability to reduce planned obsolescence of useable products.
Why is this important?
We are pulling resources from the earth in a non-sustainable way. As software is constantly being upgraded, older printers, computers and more are no longer supported and often replaced and discarded. We need more backward compatibility, upgradability and the ability to repair rather than discard.
