Fairphone put out a document that takes a holistic look at the environmental impact of electronics. Everything detailed by component, material, process, etc. Really interesting for those looking to dig deeper

@Techaltar would be interesting to see one about human impacts, such as child labor, conflict minerals and other exploitation
@Techaltar of course... capitalism in general is exploitative, but there are variations

@lumi @Techaltar they have published a lot of stuff around their supply chain, and in the past they've been fairly transparent about the fact that securing some parts of it is very hard (e.g. you can guarantee that child labor was not involved in battery production and assembly from the vendor, but the previous step of mineral extraction could still rely on child labor)
