Go Green!
This page is dedicated to something that isn’t really related to websites, but at the same time is. The computers we use to create websites, and those computers that use our websites are all using electricity. Electricity comes from a number of places, though the most common are currently those that either burn coal or wood, which release harmful CO2 gases into the environment, as well as others even more harmful gases.
So, we need to try and do our part to helping save our planet by going green.
On this page I’ll be listing articles and resources which will help you go green:
- LocalCooling.com – Fight Global Warming From Your Desktop
