[@Benoit35]

I'm not sure I have the same enthusiasm as others. 85% of the pollution is made during the manufacture of a device. For example in wind turbines there are rare metals such as magnets and copper. Ditto in the mirrors of solar power plants. They contain copper, lead. Has Google taken into account the entire chain of creation of devices to generate the "renewable" energy they use to say that they compensate in carbon equivalent? All scientists agree that the best renewable energy is to consume as little as possible. Every hour around the world, more than 140 million queries are made on Google. According to Harvard researcher Wissner-Gross, each Google request emits 7 grams of CO2. So in one hour, the CO2 emitted by emails from all over the world is equivalent to 1000 Paris - New York round trips. How is google working to reduce this consumption?

[@paulwalker993RSR]

Did you know that solar power plant has a gas supply cos it doesn't get hot enough by itself and is now derelict anyway and wind generators need a massive concrete base to hold them down not to mention the non recyclable blades!

Another way for consumers to be more energy efficient is to buy Titanium+ Power Supplies, to get the maximum electricity for the power that you pay. That way less of it goes out as heat, and you pay less in electricity bills. ❤️

[@Sulfen]

Titanium+ power supplies are very pricey. People should try to at least get a Gold or Platinum power supply. The different is only 1-3% efficiency. And if it's not a gaming computer then the wattage saved is negligible with only a 1-3% difference.

Out in the country we use cardboard as a soil mulch with leaves on top around our vegetables, trees, and shrubs (blueberries, yum!). Please pass the word to companies to begin using tapes and other packaging that are bio degradable so we can use this cardboard without eventual pollution of our soil. We have no recycling out here, so if we can turn things, not just tapes, into compost or mulch to eventually turn to compost, it will cut way back on the rubbish heaps we have in the country. We drive 15 miles to the store and it would be nice to have more degradable packaging of all sorts. Thanks for passing this along.
