Why Go Green?
Very few people realize the true impact the web hosting industry has on the environment, the average server produces the same emissions as a 15MPG vehicle let alone the data centre where the server is located which consumes on average as much electricity as 30,000 households.
Let's put it another way... many websites are hosted on servers which on average produces around 12½ tonnes of CO2 each year, that is a huge amount of CO2!
Each year your PC produces half a tonne, your car produces 5 tonnes and your home produces 6½ tonnes—this means on average each person is responsible for 12 tonnes of the CO2 that is produced each year! That is a huge amount of CO2 and shows why green hosting makes sense.
