Dirty Streaming: The Internet's Big Secret

Sarah Best

22nd May 2020

This video from BBC Stories examines how the internet is now as polluting as flying.

It is predicted that in the next 15 years or so (the presenter makes a link to Kylie Jenner's daughter for this...), the internet may use more than a fifth of the world's electricity.

This video could be used for The Media unit (social networks) and Global Development (globalisation).
