Together, with the help of the tech industry, we can turn the Internet green.
|
The Internet is how we connect, learn new things, and share what we love. But right now much of our Internet is also dirty, no matter how we use it.
Data centers are where Internet companies store our photos, messages, and music, and many are powered by coal and dirty energy sources that pollute our environment and harm our climate.
What’s worse — the Internet’s demand for energy is only growing bigger. If the Internet were a country, its electricity use would already rank sixth in the world.
Take action for a greener Internet today.
With your help, we’ve already gotten Facebook and Apple to power their corner of the internet with renewable energy. But other companies are still using coal and other dirty energy.
That’s why we’re launching this campaign starting with the CEOs of major social media companies like Twitter and Pinterest to commit to 100 percent renewable energy and make a real impact on stopping climate change. But for our request to stick and for other companies to follow, it’s critical that their users — YOU! — demand this change.
Add your name to a growing movement of Internet users demanding a clean, renewable answer from companies like Twitter and Pinterest to this dirty data problem. Sign now to tell big tech companies that you want a green internet!
We’re confident that we can turn these companies and several others into leaders in the clean energy revolution — because we’ve done it before. Just last year — after hearing from supporters like you — tech giants Facebook and Apple committed to powering up with renewable energy like wind and solar.
Since then, our team has spent months and months researching and ranking companies on their online energy footprint. Yesterday, we revealed who’s leading the charge and who’s falling behind. This will mark the first time several of these companies have ever heard from Greenpeace so they need to hear our collective voices, loud and clear.
To truly combat global warming in the next decade, we need the tech industry to lead the charge in renewable energy investment.
Sign today and we’ll be one step closer to powering the Internet with clean, renewable energy. Together, we can create a greener online so we can enjoy a greener offline!
The tech industry is in a powerful position to make a real impact on stopping global warming if companies switch to abundant clean energy available like wind and solar.
If we gather together now, we’ll have the power to flip dozens of online companies from dirty to clean. Join with us today.
For a greener offline,
Nicky Davies
Greenpeace USA Campaigns Director
P.S. Don’t worry — this email was sent on a clean server. We now need your voice to make social media companies like Twitter and Pinterest to commit to 100 percent renewable energy too. Join the green Internet movement today and be part of something big.
Fifty-four percent of people murdered with a firearm between 2000-2010 were black, even though African-Americans make up just thirteen percent of the population in the United States.
