Yeah I don't buy that argument either. The amount of e-waste being saved by NetBSD is so tiny as to be insignificant.
NetBSD is great for retrocomputing, since it's a modern OS that can run on very limited hardware. It's also a very nice traditional UNIX. It's well documented, has a nice codebase, and is a pleasure to use. But for saving e-waste, Linux has it beat.
