A structured Digital Detox challenge to help you reduce digital overload, improve clarity, and engage more intentionally with your work and life, and have a sustainable living.
Digital Detox Challenge
A six-week challenge to help you act and reset your relationship with technology - enabling more intentional use, improved focus, and a reduced digital carbon footprint.
-
Participants take part in positive digital habits (e.g., right sizing video quality, decluttering cloud storage, switching off auto play, batching uploads, setting “quiet hours”).
-
Each habit is carbon positive (when possible) and designed to boost wellbeing (attention, sleep, and social connection).
-
Participants will be provided with a personal dashboard, tips on positive digital habits, and challenge leaderboard to engage with other participants in the challenge. All measured transparently and compliant with GDPR rules.
We are operating in an increasingly digitally connected world, often at the cost of attention, well-being and environmental impact.
-
Our digital lives—streaming, scrolling, storing—consume far more energy than we realize. The ICT sector contributes ~1.7–2.8% of global GHG emissions; (and used over 1,183 TWh of electricity in 2022). User devices, networks, and data centres all play a role.
-
Every photo we auto-backup, every HD video we stream, every live picture we click, and every minute of endless scrolling travels through energy-hungry networks, data centres, and devices.
-
Cutting unnecessary data use and reduced screen times, not only reduce emissions and also improve wellbeing by lowering stress, improving sleep, and reclaiming attention.
-
Randomised trials show short term reductions in screen/smartphone time improve depressive symptoms, sleep quality, stress, and behavioural outcomes in children and adults.
