Quite deliberately, because we want to reach as many people as possible.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n
At first glance, it seems strange that E.ON, as part of a campaign for a\ngreen internet, is publishing a video that is clicked on several million times\non the internet \u2013 thus triggering high power consumption in data centres. But\nin fact E.ON has made the video climate-neutral \u2013 the CO2 emissions for up to\nthree million hits on YouTube have been offset. If there are more, E.ON will\nadd to the compensation. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
E.ON has discovered the world’s greenest data centre in the Bavarian village of Grotach. The computing power there is completely sustainable and 100% CO2-neutral.
