Hosting web applications takes up space on servers and requires ongoing consumption of electricity to power the user experience. The power consumed to support the web design industry is immense. Many web design companies now looking for ways to offset their carbon emissions. A large number of companies begin by reducing the carbon output of their vehicle fleets or by purchasing carbon credits. One way tech companies are able to quickly and effectively make the transition to a carbon neutral footprint is by hosting their applications on Green servers. A Green host is one that gets its power from a distributed and sustainable grid. Power for a Green host comes from sources including but not limited to wind, solar, and tide power. The costs of Green hosting are generally a little bit higher for the end consumer, but much lower for the system as a whole. We live in an age of exponential growth and impossible scale, in which the impact of one decision can rapidly influence the entire world. If every company made the choice to host Green, we would all live in a better world. Now, you ask, where can I find a Green host? One of the best is ThinkHost. ThinkHost provides world class hosting that is driven by the solar and wind power. To learn more about ThinkHost, or to get started making the transition to Green hosting, visit ThinkHost.
