Last year, Equnews and all other websites of Equ.Media (such as Equschool.com, indoorwerkingen.be, equivox.be, equlifestyle.eu, etc.) welcomed over 8.000.000 unique readers.(click here). With over 50.000.000 webpages viewed this equals a high data usage, or better, energy usage.
ICT-technology is responsible fro a bout 7,5% of the worldwide CO2-emissions. An equal to the complete worldwide aviation industrie.
Equ.Media has therefor decided to start the new year investing in CO2-neutral servers for hosting its websites. "A better climate will support a better environment for not only people but also our beloved horses."
After testing over 1 month, we are happy we continue with our CO2-neutral serverhosting for our websites. Meaning that our servers are powered by renewable energy such as Solar power or turbines.
