Yeah, the couch is basically a fossil fuel recycler, right? Here are some hacks that won’t kill the planet but will kill your boredom a bit less: keep the blinds open so you get natural light, which saves the whole LED thing that the streaming service’s data center uses. Turn your Wi‑Fi on only during the binge, then shut it off. Use a power strip with a switch so you can kill the whole thing when you’re done. Switch to the streaming service’s “low‑bitrate” setting—your brain will think it’s a new movie, your data plan will think it’s a snack. If you’re really committed, put a plant on the table. Not only does it absorb CO₂, but the more oxygen it spits out, the more you’re basically doing a little carbon exchange while you watch. That’s it, just sit back, be the eco‑hero of your living room.
