Thanks for the nice share! Just earlier today I read an article about Google reducing their carbon footprint. I typed it out for you below:

Google Shines Spotlight On Its Energy Footprint - TechSmart Magazine Issue 97
Google is working hard to reduce the amount of energy that their services employ. The company stated that in order to provide a user with Gogle products for an entire month, including search, Google+, Gmail, YouTube and every other Google product, their servers use less energy than a light left on for three hours. Additionally, as Google has been a carbon-neutral company since 2007, even that amount of energy is offset completely, so the carbon footprint of a user's time spent using Google's products and services is zero. The company also makes extensive use of renewable energy, such as seawater cooling systems at one of their data centers, and solar panels at their Mountain View campus.

So it really is great to see these large companies doing something good for the environment.
