Hello fellow WHTers!
Train the environment.
So I'm sitting on the train -- yes, as I write this. I like taking public transportation when I can. It is one small way to leave less of an impact on the ecology. I like the roominess, comfort, and gentle pace that trains provide. Besides, these three hour drives don't go over so well with my body. As I'm sitting next to and chatting with a seasoned train traveler, she happens to mention that she's been traveling this same train for several years. "I could drive", she says, "but the train's going where I'm going anyways. So why should I add to emissions?" I like that thinking!
In the last newsletter, we featured our Web Hosting Wiki article about green web hosting and steps providers are taking to leave less of an environmental footprint. It's great to see providers taking steps to lessen their carbon footprint. The first featured thread in this issue of the newsletter focuses on how data centers can use temperature to use less energy and therefore have a diminished environmental impact.
In other news, WHT is Twittering at @WebHostingTalk. We'll be updating you with links to popular threads and topics. If you're a fan of Twitter, or want to get the latest on WHT happenings, be sure to follow us!
