Do computer fonts and graphics use up energy? Does emailing information use up energy?



For example, font and graphics on a printed book use up ink, which is a resourse and costs money.

Mailing a physical letter uses up the Mailman’s gasoline and uses resources and costs money.

Does text on a computer screen use up energy or resources? Does sending an email use up energy as the information is pulsing thru the wires?

Is my computer destroying my vision?



I work on a computer, use my computer for school, and also do a lot of emailing, buying things online, etc., so I spend most of the day, every day looking at a computer screen. I’ve noticed that my vision is getting a little blurry–is that from looking at the computer screen, and is there anything I can do to get better? I can’t quit my job or school or stop using email, so that wouldn’t be a solution.
