Reply To A Interview Email

Internet more quickly pollute the air traffic

A news reported today by WinTricks , it takes away the last whim we thought quite innocent surf the internet because it makes us partakers of the pollution of 160 million tonnes of CO2 per year (ie 0.3% of the total) that are released into our atmosphere by tens of millions of machines and associated cooling systems. It is estimated that in 2020 servers worldwide pollute more air traffic.
would be the case that the world-or at least in the group of countries most environmentally conscious- was established a date by which server to migrate all systems to solar-or at least those on which buildings can install the panels. But I wonder how much energy they need, considering that there will surely be considerable variability in the amount of current consumption, and then I'm afraid it would be very difficult to make the Internet-the 'intellectual excellence for less-polluting.
If we think that 60% of email traffic consists of spam and the most global business on the Internet is the preserve of porn sites, do not even have the excuse to say: well, but at least it is!
