The UK government saying "delete old emails" to save water. 🤦‍♂️

Most emails average about 50k of storage even for someone who gets a lot of attachments, and will have exactly zero effect on data center consumption.

"Don't use cryptocurrency" and "don't use generative AI" would of course be thousands of times more effective.

@MichaelTBacon This is like trying to lose weight by using 3/4 of a spoon of sugar in your coffee instead of a full spoonful, while still eating 3 supersized meals a day at McDonalds.
