Honestly, energy efficiency isn't just about the environment. It can save your startup money too, so it's a win-win. Look into energy-efficient office appliances and power management practices.

Optimize your code to run efficiently on less powerful machines. Not only will this save energy, but also opens up your product to users with older devices. Plus, consider using PUE (Power Usage Effectiveness) as a metric when choosing cloud services.

Digital waste? Really? Maybe focus on actually building the product first before worrying about all that hyped eco-stuff. Just saying.

Hey, I'm kind of in the same boat! One thing we're focusing on is minimizing paper usage. Going as digital as possible with contracts, notes, invoices, etc. Small step, big impact.

Hosting solutions are huge. Try renewable-powered data centers. Google, Apple, all the big guys are investing in this. You should be able to find smaller providers offering similar services too.

Definitely look into using refurbished hardware! It's a great way to reduce electronic waste. Also, consider implementing remote work policies to cut down on commute-related emissions. 🌍
