Welcome to the *official* LinkedIn page for Digital Cleanup Day's global activity, brought to you by our Tallinn-based HQ.
Digital Cleanup Day is a day dedicated to cleaning up our digital lives, just like we clean up our physical environment on World Cleanup Day.
Now into its fifth year, and organised by Let's Do It World, Digital Cleanup Day is aimed at raising awareness about digital pollution, encouraging individuals and companies to declutter and restructure their online presence.
In the digital world, just like in the physical world, there is a huge amount of trash. Unnecessary emails, files, apps, and duplicates of photos and videos are all digital waste.
For the calculation of digital trash, we use the world average CO2 emission figures of the International Energy Agency, according to which, “4 GB of data stored on servers and other data storage for one year consumes 2 kWh of energy and produces 1 kg of CO2.”
120 zettabytes of data were produced in 2023, which is forecast to reach 147 zettabytes in 2024.
2023 witnessed an increase of 23.71% in the data generated
compared to the previous year.
Since 2020, 175 different countries and territories have taken part in Digital Cleanup Day.
Over 1.2 million people have deleted just over 14.5 million GB of data, preventing the yearly production of around 3,625 tons of CO2.
To prevent digital waste becoming the new "single-use plastic" crisis,
start with these three, simple, everyday steps:
1. Become aware of the impact of digital waste.
2. Delete all unnecessary digital content.
3. Create data responsibly.
Everyone with a digital device can take part in Digital Cleanup Day, simply by identifying and deleting unnecessary data, such as duplicate photos and/or videos, or large data files no longer needed.
Carry out an audit of what to get rid of, work out the total amount, then report it on our website so your figures can join those from the rest of the world!
