Using wind farms is a great idea, and I suppose other ideas like solar panels are also being used. Still, the product must be competitive before consumers will choose these products. I don't think there are many people that will choose a product solely because they are "green", but this factor is becoming more and more relevant to consumers. Hi Tom,

I am looking forward to see more hosting providers who use such technology. Nowdays, it's really important to keep the carbon dioxide levels as low as possible as global warming isn's a joke. Surely worth having a look into... Great work to Canvas Dreams! I am looking forward to see more hosting providers who use such technology.

I noticed their bandwidth and space were limited as well which left me a little skeptical of using. The "green" aspect makes sense to me. Maybe someone will offer the billing I need somewhere else.

Why can't the heat generated by servers also be utilised - especially in colder countries where they could provide warmth to other parts of the building.

E-waste is rapidly becoming the major pollutants on our planets, and that also goes to web hosting hardware and operation requirements. There are also hosts out there who will plant trees or purchase RECs to power their data centres. We need more web hosts like Canvas Dreams.

Green web hosting moves us one step closer to becoming less sufficient on ozone harming power supplies.

Never any downtime, the energy just keeps flowing. And if somehow the wind on the west coast stopped (very unlikely) their data center apparently runs on generators, which I don't think has ever happened. They also have an A+ BBB rating, something generally unheard of for webhost companies. They’ve been great as hosts. Never any downtime, the energy just keeps flowing.
