Measuring your Google search's carbon footprint

Quote:
 

Worried about the carbon footprint of your Google searches?

A Harvard University physicist says a typical search on a desktop computer generates about 7 grams of carbon dioxide. Thus, performing two searches is comparable to bringing a kettle to boil, according to a report Sunday in The Times of London. While that may not sound like a lot, the report notes that Google handles about 200 million searches daily.

"Google operates huge data centers around the world that consume a great deal of power," Alex Wissner-Gross told the newspaper. "A Google search has a definite environmental impact."

The global IT industry generates about 2 percent of global carbon dioxide emissions, or about as much greenhouse gas as the world's airlines, according to a recent Gartner study cited by the newspaper.


Added only the interesting parts.

So next time you search up your porn on google, think about how you're impacting the environment.

play it cool kiby

yeah i call bullshit.

Two searches is equivalent to bringing water to a boil and then they go on to say that it doesn't seem like a lot?

That'd be ridiculous if it were true.

In the event that global warming is actually in effect, Russia will slowly take over the world. That's how I know global warming is a myth.
