1970s refrigerator: I will use four times as much electricity
1970s refrigerator: I will emit a gas that will give you dementia
"they don't make em like they used to!"
Good. "They" used asbestos for insulation and put lead in gasoline
We are swimming in renewable electricity. Who cares? Making the appliance consumes resources and energy.
What kind of argument is this lol
Until renewables hit continually provide 100% of your needs...everyone should care
Ping me on lemmy when we're done burning fossil fuels for good and I'll buy a 1970s fridge the same day
Even once they do we should care. Devices that run continuously consume a lot of energy over their lifetime. Keep your 70s drill, but a freezer should, even with cheap renewable energy, pay for itself after a year or two.
