Re:Seagate claims spinning disks beat SSDs on carbon footprint by PaulKeeble on Monday May 19, 2025 @07:33AM (#44028681)
The thing is that anything electrical energy intense is going to become less CO2 producing every year as energy systems transition. Its the use of Iron and other necessary fuel usage that will become the CO2 intense items over the next 5 to 10 years. The energy usage wont be the issue and CO2e for production of any item is going to drop quite drastically.

Iron and steel can be made without fossil fuels. It's just more expensive.
