Yea, back when I needed a laptop because my super old lenovo was on its death bed, it was when there was a chip shortage or whatever and System76 didn't have the laptop I wanted in stock and Framework didn't exist (i dont think? or it wasn't shipping anytime soon) so I went with the a m1 macair. This this is incredibly in terms of price/perf & power/perf. I get tons of battery time. It's insanely fast, doesn't get hot at all and the build quality is better than any laptop I've owned to date. I probably wont need another laptop for a couple more years at least and I've had this since 2020.
When I upgrade to something else, I'll probably hand this down to my wife or her mom tbh. So in terms of eco friendly, its going to get 6+ years of use most likely if not 10.
