Increasing numbers of web hosting companies are going green. Some are taking small steps by recycling & telecommuting to decrease their impact on the enironment. Other web host companies are making huge leaps by purchasing carbon offset credits or by switching to 100% renewable energy sources.

Some may argue that “green” hosting companies reliant upon purchasing Renewable Energy Credits (RECs) to offset their non-renewable energy usage aren’t “as green” as those that rely on 100% wind or solar energy to power their web hosting centers.
