This website supports The Green Web Foundation and its ambition to turn the internet Green. This website supports The Green Web through:
Using a Green Web Host Provider
This website is hosted Eco Web Hosting. Eco Web Hosting is 100% powered by renewable energy sources.
Local servers and CDN
The majority of the users of this website are based in the UK, as such our primary hosting servers are in the UK. Around 25% of visitors come from other countries from across the world. To help make for a better experience for these users, and to reduce energy usage, this website uses a CDN, CloudFare.
Content Delivery Networks (CDN’s) keep a cache of some of the largest files this website uses in locations from all over the world. When a user visits from the West Coast, these files are served up from a CDN local to them. This means the website loads faster for the user, and less energy is used as the files do not have to keep traveling a large distance each time.
Carbon Offsetting
A percentage of ad revenues from this website goes into a Carbon Offsetting fund from June 2021. This also goes towards planting trees around the world including in the UK.
