The term "plumb" is rooted in the Latin word "plumbum," which means lead. This is because, historically, water pipes were often made of lead.

- this comes from "if digital technologies were a country they would be 4th largest polluter"kingsteven
- which is all based on Co2 during manufacture of technologies... nothing to do with the energy usage. (95% of a smartphone's Co2 emissions over its lifetime arekingsteven
- in mining the components) if you take global IT sector energy usage as 'internet' (and if that was a country) it would be 3rd largest Co2 producer.kingsteven
- either way thinking of 'the internet' as a country, and a 'polluter' is a huge stretch. and meaningless unless you're outrage marketing carbon offsetting.kingsteven

- ^ At least, that's what my good chum Gordon Ramsey calls it. And if it's good enough for him, it's good enough for me.Continuity
- ^ is that acceptable? would the food market employee know what I'm asking for? heheKrassy

- Not sure how prescient it was - if this is from 1980, it was off the back of two energies crises in the preceding decade.Nairn
- "energies crises"? Jesus.Nairn
