I'm in high school and lyceum Kouvola Kouvola from high school biology and geography lecturer. I do not like the diary blogs, but I collect here some interesting facts about the biology and geography. In particular, under consideration of the weather, climate change, sustainable development, environmental protection, as well as information and communication technologies. Media visibility and communications expert Cision's 2013 listing, this is the sixth most popular Finnish environmental themed blog.
Yesterday and today, many (including various newspapers) on the website have been published in the STT-mediated news a little incorrectly titled "Google search will take as much energy car heater 12v as teeveden car heater 12v soup." In fact, news story, however, states as follows: "The two of Google search Making produce as much carbon dioxide as teeveden heating to a boil." Teeveden number and the heating method, however, car heater 12v does not mention anything. Thrilling car heater 12v title of the same news of New Finnish online magazine writes: "Google is an environmental hazard." The initial news of the published British Times newspaper on its website yesterday. The research is based at Harvard University physicist car heater 12v Alex Wissner-Gross car heater 12v calculations, according to which a single Google search generates 7 grams of carbon dioxide. The same thing is laskeskeltu before. British environmental consultant and site carbonfootprint Officer John Buckley has fallen by one of Google search to produce carbon dioxide emissions by 1 to 10 grams, depending on will need to restart the computer specifically for this search. Buckley of the PC's use to generate 40 to 80 grams of carbon dioxide per hour. Chriss Goodall (Ten Technologies to Save the Planet-book) drops one Google search to produce 7-10 grams of carbon car heater 12v dioxide, the inclusion of the 15 minutes the user's own computer use per search. There are other interesting calculations have been made. Fortum, one of the Google search consumes car heater 12v as much energy as 11-watt energy-saving lamp hours. Nicholas Carr (The Big Switch, Rewiring the World, a book) concludes that one of the avatar character to maintain the Second Life virtual game consumes energy 1752 kWh per year, which corresponds to approximately one brasiliaisen the average energy use throughout the year. During operation, the home computer consumes one kWh in about 6 hours, a laptop computer about 40 hours, and a broadband modem to about 125 hours. You should, therefore, favor the laptop, rather than the usual computer! And in vain open computers up! Rotating the screen saver does not save energy to understand at all. All in all, the world's IT industry is estimated to generate about two percent of global carbon dioxide emissions, roughly the same as in the air. Let's get back to that original news story and its evaluation. Google made about a billion searches a day. Google is expected to owning about one million servers which seem to be in the United States, Europe, car heater 12v Japan and China (Google itself does not reveal this information). The same goes to search across multiple servers very far apart. These servers then "compete" with each other as to which of them to find the answers the fastest. The server centers generated a lot of heat. So is spent to cool the servers are often more energy than the actual machine operation. Google itself does not publish information about their energy consumption. All public car heater 12v statements were based on estimates. These have been estimated to Google's total energy consumption during the year and comparing it to the amount of searches. This has been calculated value of the carbon dioxide emissions (1-10 grams) per search. On the other hand pounding the servers of Google server centers, day and night, even if you do it on their own Google your age would do. When you search the failure to reduce the total number of searches, the calculated car heater 12v carbon car heater 12v dioxide emissions as per search will continue to grow unless the number of servers is reduced. So, you may think that your Google search still not of any importance. On the other hand, the more searches you do, the more Google will also increase the number car heater 12v of servers in order to ensure the effectiveness of searches. In this sense it is my own Google search is relevant, but a small drop in the ocean. Google announces intention to yes renewable energy. In addition, the future is going to be placed in the server containers container ship sea. In this way the sea would be possible to get a cold cooling water, car heater 12v which would reduce energy use. In addition, the sea of electricity could produce a wave of energy, car heater 12v wind turbines and tidal power. Economic benefits it would bring, not to have to buy or rent the land and pay property taxes. What's the news then taught? In my opinion, a Google search is not worth to go for a boycott. Electronic hakuhan can also save energy if it is to avoid the need for, say, driving a car to buy a piece of paper printed newspaper. However, car heater 12v if the e-magazine article to read to keep your computer open for very long, the paper printed newspaper is greener choice. Futile search engines
