Many of us use our digital devices to promote the greater good. But there is a downside to the digital revolution. This movie brings to light the environmental, economic, and social-justice failures of our favorite products.
By 2020, four billion people will own personal computers, five billion will own mobile phones, and all industries will be computerized. Are we being duped by an industry that has a death-by-design plan? Are we reaching the point where we have to decide between consumerism and sustainability?

    I hope other locations will show this film! In particular the Edmonds location. 🙂 Just turned out bad timing with I-5 being shut down at the West Seattle bridge. 🙁
