They do this to get a story not to make a damn bit of difference.

Do people replace their mouse often? Every day its a different mouse! :eek:

No, reality is people usually use their mouse for years.

crazy interesting. See, 7kg of CO2 for a mouse that weighs 1/10 of a kilogram or burning $2 worth of gas is 7kg of CO2. too bad, plenty mice have to be thrown away or repaired with missing clicks or unintended double clicks. optical switch mice should become more popular.
I have to wonder why logitech still doesn't have a mouse with an optical switch

Sadly, I sometimes unknowingly buy a mouse with a low carbon footprint. Finally a way I can be sure to only buy mice that contribute the most to climate change. Thank you Logitech! Also if Logitech is so concerned about the carbon footprint of their products, why don't they simplify their lineup; make in boring, in fact. Also, cut the marketing budget so people don't upgrade so often and just keep what they got longer.
