Not only is Green Webhosting a great way for you to help the environment, it also makes sound economic sense.
It is anticipated that by 2012 webhosting server farms will contribute as much of a carbon footprint as the airline industry - an astonishing fact and one that is already beginning to attract the attention of regulatory government bodies. Webhosting companies in the future that fail to meet environmental guidelines are sure to be penalized with high taxation a loss which will eventually be passed on to their webhosting customers.
Green Webhosting companies are all beginning to tackle this in different ways, some are even taking the drastic step of moving their web hosting server farms to cooler climates - Greenland, and not only is this aptly named country a great place to reduce the cost of climate control for web hosts due to it's chilly temperatures, it also produces most of it's electricity via Hydroelectric dams and geothermal energy - the ultimate green webhosting energy. This means that your webhosting provider not only consumes less electricity for cooling, the energy they do use is all produced by sustainable means.
As carbon offsetting and renewable energy becomes more popular the number of webhosts using Green Energy is on the up. Most Green Webhosting Companies ensure that the energy used to power their servers is produced in an environmentally friendly manner through the purchase of Renewable Energy Certificates or credits. But others actually produce their own electricity.
Below are some green webhosting companies featured by us that are offering Green Webhosting.
Hostgator have invested in enough Green Webhosting Energy credits for 130% of their power consumption, this means that their webhosting effectively produces a green energy surplus of 30%.
Good Avocado are a carbon neutral green webhosting company and their servers are powered by wind energy, they also donate a slice of your monthly fee to assorted eco projects including tree planting.
HostPapa purchase Green Energy Credits to the tune of 100% of their consumption, so all the power for their green wehosting comes from wind and solar power
So whether its for public relations, profit or pure environmental protection green webhosting is the future and we would be fools to not embrace it.
