Did you know that the
average web server produces
the same emissions as a 15
mpg SUV?
 |
Our hosting
Data Center
hosts over
1,300,000
websites
on its servers.
That means a lot
of servers, and
a lot of carbon
emissions. So we
asked ourselves,
What can we do
to be part of
the climate
change solution?
We took steps to
minimize our
environmental
impact at the
office, but
still we weren't
satisfied. We
then switched to
36% more
efficient
servers, but
still we
weren't
satisfied! |
All of our servers are
now 130% wind powered!
 |
That's right!
130%!
We're not just
neutralizing our
environmental
impact, we're
reversing it!
Our Data Center
has purchased
certified
Renewable Energy
Credits
representing
130% of the
electricity used
to
both power and
cool
every last one
of our servers! |
Just
how big
a dent
in
climate
change
does
that
make?
It's the
equivalent
of: |
 |
-
Removing
444
cars
from
the
road
for
a
year,
or
-
Powering
321
homes
with
clean
energy
for
a
year,
or
-
Saving
5,654
barrels
of
oil,
or
-
Protecting
551
acres
of
forest
for
a
year
|
Investing in wind power
close to home!
 |
All of our
Data Center's
wind credits are
generated here
in our home
state of Texas!
While we can't
build a wind
farm here in
downtown Dallas,
we're doing the
next best thing
and investing in
renewable energy
close to home!
|
Green-e certified!
 |
Every last
one of our Data
Center's wind
credits are
Green-e
certified. That
means they've
been registered,
verified, and
retired from the
market. |
