Giving back, instead of just taking

Please do yourself a favor and read Create Beauty by Jacob Devaney (2004) on greenmuseum.org

An excerpt:

Have you ever considered giving thanks to the rocks and minerals that have been ground-up, and heated with flame to be soldered to the mother-board of your computer for the sake of transmitting light and information? When considering the impact that our technological world is taking on our natural environment, I feel that it is nothing short of blasphemy to use these tools for anything less than their highest potential. If we are lucky, media may one day live up to it's potential to inspire, delight, educate, and heal our people.

- Jacob Devaney (2004)
