Most people don’t consider this, but the use of the internet involves not only the use of a device charged by electricity, but also calling on millions of pieces of data stored on servers. That’s why every Google Search, every email sent or received, and every photo uploaded to Instagram means the consumption of electricity and therefore the emission of greenhouse gases.

CRJ Design's Green Web Hosting
One small step you can take as a business owner is to invest in green web hosting for your website. The CRJ Design Web Hosting servers are powered by 100% renewable energy from green energy suppliers using wind and solar power. The data centres excel in efficiency with a PUE (power usage effectiveness) of 1.12.
Additionally, the energy-efficient autoscaling hosting platform means your website only uses the resources it needs, so no energy is wasted.
Planting Trees With One Tree Planted
1 Website or Hosting Client = 1 Tree Planted
To help offset carbon usage, CRJ Design is partnered with One Tree Planted with a mission to plant one tree for every new website or web hosting client (and 1 tree per month).
Planting trees is one of the best ways to combat the damaging effects of climate change. Trees help clean the air we breathe, filter the water we drink, and provide habitat to over 80% of the world’s terrestrial biodiversity.
