As our understanding of climate change continues to grow and we are able to identify large emitters, the tech industry cannot be ignored due to the large data centers that run 24/7. For this reason, using green web hosting services is a must.
Unlike traditional web hosts, green web hosting companies can lower their impact on the environment in a variety of ways. And by extension, anyone’s website hosted by them will have a smaller carbon footprint or none at all.
For example, here at GreenGeeks, we calculate exactly how much energy our servers use and then purchase three times that amount in clean wind energy. This not only offsets the emissions but also helps us reduce emissions in general.
