Wanna save energy? Stop googling.
News item:
Think about that ... ONE search is the same as turning on a light for an hour.
You're not paying for it directly, but for a serious Greenie, that shouldn't matter. Energy is being used!!!!! And part of that energy comes from evil carbon-emitting Coal!!!!!
If you're a real Gaia worshipper, you MUST stop using the Web. NOW!
Consummation devoutly to be wished. Ain't gonna happen, of course. Google is a veritable cathedral for Commies, shaping every search to favor Transnational Progressives and disfavor nationalists and Christians. Google is the nerve center of the Left. ¶ 7:39 AM
IT research firm Gartner estimates Google's data centres contain nearly a million servers, each drawing about 1 kilowatt of electricity. So every hour Google's engine burns through 1 million kilowatt-hours. Google serves up approximately 10 million search results per hour, so one search has the same energy cost as turning on a 100-watt light bulb for an hour.
