Digital Sustainability: Using Digital Minimalism to Reduce Your Digital Carbon Footprint

Written by Stephanie Marie Seferian

Narrated by Cynthia Barrett

We live in a highly digitized world. In 2021, the average US household had twenty-five devices connected to their home WiFi systems — almost double the average for 2019. Unfortunately, everything we do online, from scrolling to streaming, leaves behind a digital carbon footprint, contributing to greenhouse gas emissions that cause global warming. What can we do to make sure we’re using our devices in an environmentally responsible way?

In Digital Sustainability, an audio course from Scribd Coach, Sustainable Minimalists podcast host Stephanie Seferian explains how you can use the practice of digital minimalism to reduce your carbon footprint and contribute to a healthier planet. In the course, Seferian explains exactly what is meant by “digital minimalism,” shares practical advice for decreasing your digital carbon footprint, gives advice on fighting planned obsolescence, and explores ways to make your smartphone last. She also offers exercises along the way to help listeners put what they’ve learned into practice.

Listeners looking to live more sustainably — and more minimally — will find valuable, practicable insights in Digital Sustainability.
