I have been reading some great data about web host firms going green. Power from alternative energy sources, buying those carbon thingies. Wind, rain, gravity, solar winds, being more efficient, telecommuting, all those enchiladas.
The US Government is building a massive data center in the bottom of a quarry in West Virginia. After its complete, gravel will be back filled in and apparently natural water will circulate. A great way to off load all that data center heat and shield yourself from a nuclear incident at the same time, a twofer. Green I would say.
At home we have gone greenish. My wife has me using those cloth bags at the grocery, holds 12 packs of Moosehead really well, square no sag, strong handles and some insulating properties. We use a sailboat vs. motorboat.
It is hard to find a way for a company like mine to go greener. The A/C is already up to 80, the hot water heater is turned off (In the summer you can do that in Florida) and we turn off the printer at the end of the business day.
So I want to buy a new green CAR…which is why I wrote this blog...so you would click on the word CAR.
We are all learning how to dump the box.
