"Environmental advocacy"....If they really believed in that they'd get laws passed requiring electronics to be supported for at least 5 years. To have to throw out a perfectly functional electronic device because the manufacturer chooses to only support it for the first 2 or 3 years of its life, or even that long, or face having to live with security holes, is crap.
