Website hosting servers pull energy from the grid, most of that energy comes from fossil fuels. Each server produces 1390 pounds of CO2 each year! There are tens of millions of servers worldwide, and grown in web hosting services is on the rise.
Basically, your website has a carbon footprint.
So what is an eco-friendly website?
BossDog servers are located in the U.S. with a company that purchases wind energy credits to compensate threefold for the power used. What this means is that for every amperage of power pulled from the grid, three times that is invested in the form of renewable energy.
Now that is something to howl about ;)
