So that we don't forget about the impact of IT
How much energy does a laptop use? Where do batteries go when we "recycle" them? What's the kilowatt cost of our data centers?

About
My career has been as a computer programmer, and over the past couple decades, I have worked for many industries. Most of my life, I have been involved in the outdoors, and as an adult, I have spent a lot of time involved in environmental issues. Now, I am combining the two to build online tools for public involvement and community participation. I'd love to find some people to discuss ideas with.

Dreams
Beyond, beyond the mountain line,
The grey-stone and the boulder,
Beyond the growth of dark green pine,
That crowns its western shoulder,
There lies that fairy-land of mine,
Unseen of a beholder.
Its fruits are all like rubies rare;
Its streams are clear as glasses;
There golden castles hang in air,
And purple grapes in masses,
And noble knights and ladies fair
Come riding down the passes.
Ah me! they say if I could stand
Upon those mountain ledges,
I should see on either hand
Plain fields and dusty hedges;
And yet I know my fairy-land
Lies somewhere o'er their edges.
