Send us a text 10x the Energy of a Google Search: The Hidden Environmental Impact of AI. In this episode of The Circular Future podcast, host Stephanie McLarty, Head of Sustainability at Quantum Lifecycle Partners, dives into the environmental consequences of artificial intelligence. This episode uncovers the hidden costs of AI, including its massive energy, water, and material demands, while also exploring how AI can be part of the solution to sustainability challenges. Through insights and actionable strategies, this episode equips listeners to champion responsible AI use and circular economy practices in their businesses and communities. Key Takeaways: A single ChatGPT query consumes **10x the electricity** of a Google search, highlighting AI's significant energy demands. Data centers powering AI require vast amounts of raw materials, rare earth metals, and water, with global AI water usage projected to exceed Denmark’s annual consumption by 2027. AI has the potential to aid sustainability efforts by optimizing energy use, tracking emissions, and preventing environmental disasters. Promoting circularity through electronics reuse and recycling helps recover valuable materials and reduces e-waste. Individuals and businesses can mitigate AI’s environmental impact by using it mindfully, advocating for sustainable practices, and partnering with certified recyclers like Quantum Lifecycle Partners.

Send us a text Stephanie McLarty, Head of Sustainability at Quantum Lifecycle Partners, unpacks the critical 2025 amendments to the Basel Convention and their impact on global e-waste management. Learn how new rules governing transboundary movements of electronic waste could reshape supply chains, compliance requirements, and recycling practices—even for businesses not directly involved in international trade. Key Takeaways: Basel Convention Basics: Established in 1989 to regulate hazardous waste trade, now expanded to include stricter controls on e-waste (e-Amendments). New Definitions: Covers whole electronics, components (e.g., circuit boards), and processed fractions (e.g., shredded materials). Prior Informed Consent (PIC): Exporters must obtain written approval from importing countries before shipping regulated materials. Country-Specific Rules: Implementation varies by nation (e.g., Canada’s exemption for OECD imports), creating compliance complexity. Supply Chain Ripple Effects: Indirect impacts on pricing, turnaround times, and certifications (e.g., R2V3 compliance risks). Action Steps: Audit supply chains, stay updated on regulatory shifts, and collaborate with certified partners like Quantum. Thanks for listening!
