/Digital technologies can inflict substantial human and environmental 
harms: from extractivist economies of mining to toxic e-waste; from 
unsafe and oppressive working conditions to rising carbon and heat 
emissions and electricity use; from individal and collective 
surveillance to economic subordination and emotional depletion. These 
harms are unevenly distributed and deeply connected to social, economic 
and racial injustices. And yet, conversations about digital 
sustainability, climate change and environmental justice rarely use the 
logic of '*refuse, reduce, reuse, repurpose, recycle*' with regards to 
digital technologies. Scholarship and policy on digital sustainability 
continues to insist on green digital growth, instead of posing crucial 
questions of degrowth and reduction. This summer school brings together 
*principles of environmentally driven degrowth; decolonial and 
anti-racist environmental justice; and digital disengagement and opt 
out* to explore whether and how we can reduce, reuse and perhaps even 
refuse the digital./
