Carbon Neutral Search Engine
Google search engine on a black screen? Ji Hain, it serves a great environmental purpose.
The site http://www.carbonneutralsearch.co.uk/ utilizes Google search engine and is in fact no different. However, according to the site, the amount of energy used on each individual computer generated
from search queries equates to about one gram of carbon dioxide.
So the premise of the website is that any revenue generated from Google queries on their ’Carbon Neutral Search Engine’ will go to purchase carbon offsets. The website has openly chosen to use ClimateCare.org, a UK based company that allows people from all
over the world to purchase carbon offsets and puts the money towards funding sustainable energy projects. The idea is a great one and should be remembered by all those self proclaimed environmentalists there.
As for other environmental bloggers out there,
"We offer websites the opportunity to enhance their listings on the Carbon Neutral Search Engine by either writting about us on their website or blog (subject to Carbon Neutral Search Engine reviews). If you do please forward the details to
media@carbonneutralsearch.co.uk. You may also receive a listing in our "In the Media" section of this blog."
if you write about the website and let them know you’ve done so, they will enhance your listing in there search engine. It could result in more traffic to your environmental website if you have one. Besides that, make sure you check it out the next time
you have a search, it goes to a great cause and will provide an extra boost to battling climate change.
