5 Steps to Green Hosting

November 23, 2008 / No Comments

Jason Keath at “Jason Keath – Where Old Media Goes to Die” offered up his 5-step plan to “Green Hosting”.

  1. Buy Your Own Offset Credits -Resources: How to buy carbon credits (Ehow.com) | Carbon credit price comparisons. Read Jason’s tip.
  2. Use Hosting that Buys Credits – Jason’s recomendation – One good option in this direction is Dreamhost.
  3. Use Hosting that Buys Green Energy – Better than buying credits when you use energy from wind farms, solar panels, and so on. Jason’s Resources: ThinkHost | HostPapa | HostGator
  4. Use Hosting that Produces Green Energy -
    Some, but not all, in this category (from Treehugger.com):

  5. Use Your Own Green Powered Servers. Build you own wind turbine or hang solar panels.

Great ideas, Jason! Thanks!
