    Remember "don't print this email" in signatures that was a bit cringe? It doesn't feel that cringe anymore in retrospect. I'm doing an experiment now with this new email signature πŸ˜„ Anyone doing something similar? Could it catch on?

    edit: BTW please absolutely steal/modify this idea if you want!

      "Please consider sustainanility before using AI to process this email"

        @mntmn ah I love this! I always thought the "don't print this email" message was wild, why would anyone print an email? And then a year ago I got a job at a warehouse where the boss (my age, mid 30s) printed SO MANY EMAILS. I had never seen anything like it and I could not dissuade her from doing it. Nor could I convince her to digitize paper records. Nor could I convince her not to use ChatGPT. I quit that job.

          @mntmn I never use Ai but I ask people to send me an email instead of sms or a whatsapp which I don't use either. My thought on this is that sending an email doesn't cost so much water than when I people use Ai. I write my own e-mails, born last century in 1967.

            We were talking about these signatures a few days ago! I knew people in the 2000’s who only read emails when printed…. Good idea!

                      @mntmn Only a few days ago I learned how real this impact is: xAI has set up 18 temporary turbines less than a mile from my neighborhood, which will soon expand to 41 permanent turbines. This site exists in the middle of several residential areas and the physical damage from the pollution (cancer, heart attacks) increases based on proximity.

                      Here is a website with more information: https://stopxai.org/ and here is a local news article: https://wreg.com/news/local/xai-seeking-permit-for-41-gas-turbines-in-southaven/

                                          Remember "don't print this email" in signatures that was a bit cringe? It doesn't feel that cringe anymore in retrospect. I'm doing an experiment now with this new email signature πŸ˜„ Anyone doing something similar? Could it catch on?

                                          edit: BTW please absolutely steal/modify this idea if you want!

                                          @mntmn then it should be put AT THE TOP OF THE MESSAGE IN ALL-CAPS – because nobody reads those sigs. and so-called "legal disclaimers" at the end of messages are also just wasted bandwidth, space and energy.
